Wainuiomata Street Name Origins WainuiomataStreetNames.docx WAINUIOMATA STREET NAME ORIGINS This document is about the origins of road and street names in Wainuiomata. It excludes topographical features. Wainuiomata is named after the big water or stream of Mata. Wai means water. Nui means big. O means of. Mata refers to a woman's name Roimata. This is an official version. The origins of the word are disputed and other commonly accepted translations are: - Refers to the women living in the now Hutt Valley who came over the Wainuiomata Hill to evade marauding tribes. These tribes in about 1819 were carrying muskets that came north from the Paremata area. In the battle the local tribes were said to have been destroyed. The Paremata Maoris came across the remaining women who were sitting wailing by the stream after the slaughter of their menfolk. From this we have “faces streaming with water”, “tears” or “weeping water”. - Refers to the large pools of water which lay over the swampy surface of the northern end of the Valley, or the river itself which is known to flood the Coast Road / Wainuiomata Valley. From this it can also mean large river from the swamp. - Refers to the whitebait that are present at the mouth of the river. Mata means whitebait. From this we have big river of whitebait. - Refers to flint or obsidian which is hard rock found in the headwaters of the river. - Refers to the origin and personification of water. Other documents that relate to the area are: - For information on the topographical features, tracks, huts and other sites of Wainuiomata, that is the watershed from the head of the Wainuiomata River to the mouth where it enters the sea at the Wainuiomata Coast and its tributaries, see the Wainuiomata Place Name Origins document. - For information on central Wainuiomata, such as houses, parks and suburb names that are on the flat area see the Wainuiomata Central Place Names Origins document. For more history about the Maori naming and their association with Wainuiomata see the article titled Wainuiomata – Whats in the Name in the book Tales From Wainuiomatas Past – Volume 2 by Gavin Wallace and Dawn Chambers. See also the Wikipedia page on Wainuiomata and the Wainuiomata River. Prior to suburbia coming to Wainuiomata in the 1940s, Wainuiomata was a farming community. There were 5 main roads: - Fitzherbert / Swamp Road. - Wainuiomata Road – now known as the Main and Wainuiomata Road. - Wainuiomata Valley Road – now known as the Coast Road. - Moores Valley Road. - Reservoir Road. There was also 4 minor roads: - Lighthouse Road. - Neills Lane. - Rimu Road. - School Road. © Jeremy Foster 2021 Page 1 of 25 WainuiomataStreetNames.docx Subdivision started in the early 1940s, when the Wainuiomata Development Company started building houses. This company was formed by a group of Wellington businessmen in 1927, who took over the option of about 4000 acres of privately owned in order to develop the area for residential purposes. The key to that development was the construction of a road tunnel from the Hutt Valley. Work began on the tunnel in 1932, but discontinued because of the depression. This brought the land development of halt with many investors losing money. The streets were first named after the directors and bond holders of the Wainuiomata Development Company. When these stopped being used, English and Irish place names were used which came from Ronald William Stockdale (1901 – 1983). Names also came people associated with Truebridge, Callender, Beach and Co Ltd, a surveying and engineering firm which developed large areas of the valley. People associated with the Hutt County Council were used. Native tree and Maori names were also used. In recent years developers and people associated with the valley have been used. The document is laid out in the following style: Street Name for example – Antrim Crescent. Definition for example – A town and county in Ireland. Source of where the definition came from for example – Internet Search. Time frame when the name came into existence for example – 1970s. The street names are from various maps as stated in the Bibliography. See the Bibliography for further sources of information. Antrim Crescent A town and county in Ireland.

Tanja Gradečak Erdeljić Osijek, 2011 Abstract This diploma paper deals with toponyms, also referred to as place names, which can be found on the British Isles as evidence of different linguistic influences that shaped the English language. The aim of this paper is to give a brief overview of naming patterns and affixes that were used in the processes of naming. The toponyms are presented in five groups that are arranged in a chronological order as the settlements on the Isles occurred. Before the groups are discussed, a short overview of a theoretical part concerning toponymy is provided. The first group consists of Celtic settlers, followed by the Roman invasion, the conceiving of the Old English by the Anglo- Saxons, Viking raids and conquering, and the last group being the Normans. A short overview of the peoples’ settlement or colonization is given for every group, as well as place names and their influence on the English language.

  • Place-Name Sources
    The information contained in the place-name entry for each township is based on ‘The Historical Gazetteer of England's Place-Names’, produced under the auspices of the English Place-Name Society, administered at the University of Nottingham. This is a key piece of digital infrastructure for use in the humanities, arts, and social sciences. Its aim is to associate disparate content through place - everything happens somewhere, after all - and therefore to facilitate accurate searches across resources. Gazetteers of contemporary place- names have been available for some time, but the Historical Gazetteer’s historical place-name forms add chronological depth to the mix. These forms have been collected over the last ninety years as part of the English Place-Name Society’s Survey of English Place-Names. The Digitisation of English Place-names project was licensed to Jisc by the English Place Names Society and released under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License; as access to that database has been discontinued, this database has its own entries taken from the original sources. PLACE-NAME ORIGINS – Elements and meanings The entry for each township is taken from the corresponding source for that county viz: The Place-names of Cumberland, (Armstrong et al., Cambridge University Press,1952) The Place-names of Westmorland, (Smith , Cambridge University Press, 1967) The Place-names of Lancashire, (Ekwall, Manchester University Press, 1922) (the full text of this book is available online (and can be downloaded) from the Robarts Library, University of Toronto: https://archive.org/stream/placenamesoflanc00ekwauoft/placenamesoflanc00ekwauoft_djvu.txt.) The Place-names of West Riding, (Smith, Cambridge University Press,1961) There are a significant number of cases where the experts offer alternative interpretations without there being any clear-cut answer, and some where no explanation is offered.
