Harlow Name Meaning
habitational name from any of various places called
Harlow. One in West Yorkshire is probably named from Old English
hær ‘rock’, ‘heap of stones’ + hlaw ‘mound’,
‘hill’; those in Essex and Northumberland have Old English here
‘army’ as the first element, perhaps in the sense ‘host’, ‘assembly’.There is also a record of this name as a variant of Cornish
Penhollow.
