As you explore the many vintage names inspired by the UK's glorious landscapes, take a moment to admire Hampton. This boy's name is rooted in the Old English word hāmtūn, meaning "home settlement." It's recently made the journey from a surname alongside Preston, Harlow, Camden, and Chester. Place names have a certain charm, but unlike Paris and Brooklyn, Hampton's got a cozy, rural feel.
