Tooting Bec gets its quirky name from the old English word "tooting," meaning "to trumpet" or "to make a noise," and "Bec," which comes from the French term for a stream or brook. The area was once part of a larger estate owned by the Bec Abbey in Normandy, France. The combination of these terms gives the name a humorous ring, especially when pronounced, adding to its charm. Plus, the juxtaposition of "Tooting" with "Bec" creates an amusing contrast that often raises eyebrows!
