Dover

Dover is a beautiful name that is commonly given to newborn babies. Dover is also an English and German toponymic surname that has Celtic roots. The name also comes from the port of Dover, located in Kent, England. The meaning of Dover is 'the waters.' The surname name Dover first appeared in Dover, Kent. It is a town and an important ferry port. The chalk cliffs, known as the White Cliffs of Dover, encircle the city. The cliffs were the final view of the mainland during the battle and the first view of the mainland for the majority of the returning troops. Although it was initially recorded as Dubris or Portus Dubris in the fourth century, the town has a lengthy history. The area was referred to as Dovere by the Domesday Book in 1086. The place gets its name from the nearby brook named Dour. Dover Castle, which is still standing today in Kent, is a popular tourist destination. The current building's foundation was laid down in the 11th century. It has served as a fortress's defense, particularly during the First and Second World Wars. It offers a distinctive vantage position overlooking the harbor below as the biggest castle in England. The Roman lighthouse at Dover Castle is evidence of the location's significance from ancient times. Two notable members of the Dove family are Sir Henry Dover of Bradenham Hall and Robert Dover.
