Scarborough, a district in Toronto, Canada, was named after Scarborough, a seaside town in Yorkshire, England. The name was chosen in the 19th century when the area was developed, reflecting the English heritage of the early settlers. The term "Scarborough" itself is believed to have originated from the Old Norse word "skarð," meaning a "gap" or "notch," which relates to the area's geography.
