English Holland
From Old Dutch holt lant (“wood land”). A popular but false etymology holds that it is derived from hol land (“hollow land”), inspired by the low-lying geography of both the Dutch and the English region (Holland, Lincolnshire).
词源 2
Most commonly derived from Old English hoh land (“spur land”). However, on the basis of the topographical inappropriateness of this name and early forms, Coates and Breeze (2000) argued that the first element is a Proto-Brythonic haiw- (“marsh, swamp”).
