Routledge

With English and Scottish origins, Routledge is a variant of the Old English name Rutledge, which may mean "root ledge" or "red ledge." Another possible meaning is "loud stream," inspired by its connection to a place called Routledge Barn in Cumberland. Speaking of its Cumberland-bound residents, Routledge is perhaps most famously associated with George Routledge, the well-known book publisher who founded the namesake publishing house. Whether it's the turn of a page or the lively rush of a river, Routledge is a name that speaks volumes while keeping things organically simple.
