"Lille" meaning in French

See Lille in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /lil/ Audio: Fr-Paris--Lille.ogg
Rhymes: -il Etymology: Inherited from Old French l'Isle (“the Island”), from Latin Īnsula, from īnsula (“island”), whence also île. The name was resegmented (like its Dutch counterpart Rijsel): in à l'Isle (“at the Isle”), the definite article came to be considered part of the name, and it was thus interpreted as à Lille.
