* (Noord-Brabant) First attested as ten breekelen in 1422. Presumably derived from a suffixed form of braak (“intensively ploughed land, heath converted to farmland”). Compare the toponym in Gelderland.

Bruchem

First attested as bruchem in the first quarter of the 13th century. Compound of broek (“marsh, marshland”) and heem (“home, settlement”).

a village in Zaltbommel, Gelderland, Netherlands


Delwijnen

First attested as dilevuinne in the first quarter of the 13th century. Likely a compound of a term related to Middle Dutch delle (“hollow, vale”) and Old Dutch winna (“pasture, meadow”). The -en ending is a later development.


Kerkwijk

* (Gelderland) First attested as kirkevuihc in the first quarter of the 13th century. Compound of kerk (“church”) and wijk (“settlement, village”).
* (Zuid-Holland) Attested as Kerkwijk in 1913. Compound of kerk (“church”) and wijk (“neighbourhood, quarter”).


Nederhemert-Noord

First attested as hemmerte in 1144. Likely a compound of neder (“downriver”) and Old Dutch hamar (“stone, rock”) with collectivising suffix -itja-. The element neder was added later to distinguish the settlement from Ophemert, while the element noord (“north, northern”) was added after the village was split in half through the extension of the Afgedamde Maas. Formerly a single village with Nederhemert-Zuid. Compare Hemmerde and Hemmerden.

a village in West Betuwe, Gelderland, Netherlands


Nederhemert-Zuid

First attested as hemmerte in 1144. Likely a compound of neder (“downriver”) and Old Dutch hamar (“stone, rock”) with collectivising suffix -itja-. The element neder was added later to distinguish the settlement from Ophemert, while the element zuid (“south, southern”) was added after the village was split in half through the extension of the Afgedamde Maas. Formerly a single village with Nederhemert-Noord. Compare Hemmerde and Hemmerden.


Nieuwaal

First attested as nivelen in 1146. Perhaps from Old Dutch *niuwal, derived from either Proto-Germanic *niwialhô- (“hollow, low-lying land”) (cognate to Old English niwel (“leaning forward, steep”)) or *niwialha- (“new house”). Local folk etymology erroneously interprets the toponym as a compound of nieuw (“new”) and the hydronym Waal. Compare Aalst, Elst, Maasniel, Niel, Niel-bij-As, Nivele and Waldniel.


Poederoijen

First attested as in uilla podarwic around 850. Likely a compound derived from Old Dutch podero (“calf, foal”) and ooi (“land next to water”). Proposed derivations of the first element from Old Dutch Bodhari (a personal name) or a term signifying "mud" or "sediment" are less likely. The older element wijk (“settlement, village”) was eventually replaced by ooi. Compare Peursum, Poeijers, Sterksel, Vaarle, Vaarsel, Varsen, Varssel, Varsselder, Varsseveld, Ten Vorsel and Bolsele.


Zuilichem

First attested as solekeim in 1143. Compound of Old Dutch Sûlo (a personal name) with collectivising suffix -ing- and heem (“home, settlement”).

Ammerzoden

First attested as ambershoye in 1196. Compound of a hydronym derived from Proto-Germanic *ambra- (“fog, water, river”) and ooi (“land next to water”). The -en ending is a later addition, the -d- is the result of hypercorrection.

Amelroi (alternative)

Hedel

* (Gelderland) First attested as in hatalle in 815-816. Potentially derived from Proto-Germanic *haþuwalja- (“battle wall, military camp”). A derivation from a compound of an unknown first component and lo (“light forest”) does not match with the oldest attestations. Compare Heitel.
* (Noord-Brabant) First attested as hedel in 1312. Potentially named after the village in Gelderland.

a hamlet in Oirschot, North Brabant, Netherlands


Heerewaarden

First attested as ad heriuuarda in 997. Potentially derived from either Proto-Germanic *harjawardô- (“military outpost”) or a compound derived from Old Dutch heri (“army, host”) and warda (“watch, lookout”). A proposed derivation from a compound of heer (“lord”) (referring in this case to Otto II) and Old Dutch werde (“land next to water, riverine island”) clashes with the oldest attestations.

Hoenzadriel

Potentially a compound of either Old Dutch Huni (a personal name), *Huna (“Hun”) or Proto-Germanic *hun- (“brown, dark, honey-yellow”) and *sati- (“home, homestead”) with locative suffix *-ja-. The element Driel is a later addition. Compare Driel, Kerkdriel and Velddriel.

Wellseind

First attested as Wellseind in 1849. Compound of Well and eind (“edge, extremity, end”).


Doorning

First attested as Doorning in 1936. Likely a compound of doorn (“thorn, thorn bush”) and eng (“agricultural land belonging to a village”). A derivation from Old Dutch thorn (“thorn, thorn bush”) with collectivising suffix -ingô- is less likely. Originally the name of a large section of farmland.

a hamlet in Maasdriel, Gelderland, Netherlands


Oensel

* (Gelderland) First attested as onsel in 1335. Etymology unknown. A compound derivation from Middle Dutch Oene (a personal name) and sale (“hall house”) is unlikely.

Beneden-Leeuwen

First attested as Beneden-Leeuwen in 1986.

The element beneden was added fairly recently to distinguish the settlement from Boven-Leeuwen.

The element boven was added fairly recently to distinguish the settlement from Beneden-Leeuwen. Compare Leeuwen, Leeuwte, Heiligerlee, Westerlee, Denderleeuw, Gors-Opleeuw, Lauw, Sint-Pieters-Leeuw and Zoutleeuw.


Alphen aan de Maas

First attested as alfene in 1144. Etymology uncertain. Potentially of non-Germanic origin. The toponym might be derived from a prehistoric hydronym *Albhanô- ("the white one"). The identifier aan de Maas translates to "on the Meuse".

a village and former municipality of West Maas en Waal, Gelderland, Netherlands


Altforst

First attested as altfurse in 1134. Compound of Old Dutch alt (“old”) and a term related to Old English fyrs (“gorse, Ulex europaeus”). The second element appears to have been reinterpreted as Middle Dutch vorst (“preserve, royal forest”) in younger attestations. Compare Lage Vuursche.

inh

Oudvorst (alternative)
Oudforst (alternative)


Appeltern

First attested as de apeltre in 1139. Likely a compound of Old Dutch apel (“apple”) and *tere (“tree”). Proposed derivations from Proto-Germanic *apuldra- (“apple tree”) or Old Dutch apuldra (“apple tree”) are phonologically problematic. The element *tere appears to have been reinterpreted as heem (“home, settlement”) at some point. Compare Apeldoorn, Aperloo, Ter Apel, Apuldram, Apeldorn and Appeldorn. See also Elsteren.


Dreumel

First attested as tremele in 893. Perhaps derived from Proto-Germanic *þrum- (“piece of land, terminus”) with -l suffix or from a compound of *þrum- and lo (“light forest”). Compare Drimmelen, Drempt and Drumpt.

Maasbommel

Potentially attested as de bumele in 1144, attested with certainty as masebomel in 1294-1295. Etymology uncertain. Potentially a compound of Old Dutch bom (“tree”) and lo (“light forest”). The hydronym Maas was added later to distinguish the settlement from Zaltbommel.


Wamel

First attested as in uamele and vamele in 893. Potentially a compound of an unclear first component and lo (“light forest”). The first component might be cognate to Old Saxon wam (“bad”), Old High German wam (“bad”), Old English wamm (“bad”) or Old English wamm (“stain, shame”), Old Frisian wamm (“stain, shame”), Old High German wamm (“stain, shame”); however, one would expect to find an additional -m- in the toponym if this really were the case. A proposed derivation of the first element from the verb wamen (“bubble up, well up (of mud)”) does not match the timeframe of the earliest attestations.


Blauwesluis

First attested as de slusa in 1294-1295. Compound of blauw (“blue”) (derived from the hydronym Blauwe Wetering) and sluis (“lock, sluice”). Compare Blauwe Sluis, Rode Sluis, Zwartsluis and Zwartsluisje.

a hamlet in West Maas en Waal, Gelderland, Netherlands


De Tuut

* (Gelderland) First attested as afrithon in the 11th or 12th century. Etymology uncertain. Potentially derived from a prehistoric hydronym Proto-Germanic *Abhara with the dative plural form of the collectivising suffix -iþi-. An alternative etymology posits a derivation from Proto-Indo-European *Abharitôs, a hydronym derived from the root *abh- (“bend outwards, shine”) or *ap-. Not a compound of aa (“river, stream”) and voorde (“ford”). Compare Asperen and Asperden.
* (Limburg) First attested as afordia in 1293. Etymology uncertain. The first attestation in Latin is likely a reinterpretation of the toponym as a compound of aa (“water, river”) and voorde (“ford, crossing”).
