Speculations[]
The original name given in the MERP publications, "Buhr Thingstat" seems to have been derived from early Anglo-Saxon buhrs (fortress) and thegn (thane) or thing. The proper Old Frankish form would have been Deganstatburg or Burg Dingstat; Thingastathbaurg is a logical meso-gothic form that would reflect the Old Rhovanian name of the place as it would have been known about TA 1640.
