词源

The second element is from Old English byriġ, dative case of burh (“fort”). The first element comes either from the personal name Tutta, or else from the personal name *Stūt, genitive singular *Stūtes, in which case the initial s- was lost, as similarly happened in the case of Nottingham. However, forms with initial s- are not attested until after the Old English period.
