mottram Name Meaning and History
English: habitational name from either of two places in
Cheshire. It is possible that the name originally denoted a building
where village assemblies were held, named in Old English as
‘meeting-house’, from (ge)mot ‘meeting’ + ærn
‘house’, ‘hall’. Other possibilities are that the name derives from
Old English (ge)mot-rum ‘meeting space’, or
(ge)mot-treum ‘assembly trees’.
