Why do the British give their houses names?

April 13, 2025

Despite the fact that the UK has a well-developed house numbering system (which cannot be said about the UAE), locals often give their properties names.

Most often, descriptive names are associated with nature. For example, with the garden in front of the house and the plants in it (Rose Villa, Buttercup Cottage), animals (Crow House, Lion House) or geographical and climatic features of the area (Sunbeams, South Wind).

The simplest option is to name the house based on the type of building, for example Manor or Cottage. Often, names are given based on functionality: The Vicarage or The Surgery. Even more often, owners add an adjective to the name of their home: Little House.
