What Does the Name Bronxx Mean?
Bronxx is a respelled form of Bronx, a name taken from the New York City borough, and its meaning is the same as the borough's: "Bronck's land" or "the place of Bronck." The borough and the river that runs through it are named for Jonas Bronck, a settler of Scandinavian background who held farmland along the river in the Dutch colony of New Netherland in the 1630s and 1640s. The family name Bronck is the base of the whole chain, but its own etymology is not securely settled; it has been described as Scandinavian and as Dutch, and no single root has been agreed on.
The doubled final x in Bronxx is a spelling variation only. It does not add a separate element of meaning and does not change the pronunciation, which stays one syllable ending in the -nks sound.
Bronxx Name History & Origins
The place name grew out of colonial usage: Dutch colonists in New Netherland called the waterway Broncks Rivier, "Bronck's River," after Jonas Bronck, whose farm lay near it. As English replaced Dutch in the region, the possessive ending dropped away and the name was shortened to Bronx, which then attached to the surrounding area. The borough of the Bronx was formed in 1898 as part of the consolidation of New York City, and it took its name from the river and the earlier district rather than from any separate source.
Using Bronx as a personal name is a modern American development within the wider fashion for place names and surname-style given names. Bronxx is a stylized respelling of that given name, with the extra x added for appearance; the two spellings are pronounced alike. No distinct etymology or older documented history belongs to the doubled-letter form on its own.
