Best Answer

There are no people registered with the first name or surname Glasgow in the United Kingdom according to the National Archives. The town of Glasgow wasn't named after anyone but it's likely that it gets its name from the word glas cu, which means glass hollow.

Yes, those from Glasgow are called Glaswegians. Sometimes they can also be called weegies, although this can sometimes be considered insulting.
