Hello all and welcome to Name Explain, a channel which started life focussing on the origins of names, hence the name of the channel. But now we look into words, language, and communication as a whole, and of course still explain names too. Sometimes my videos are serious, sometimes they’re silly, but hopefully they are always enjoyable. I upload a short every Tuesday and a full video every Friday. Subscribe to stay up to date on all my stuff and check out some of the many videos I have made over the years. If you have ever wondered how something got its name, I probably have a video answering it somewhere. Thank you and enjoy!
