  1. 1亞伯丁（蘇格蘭東北港市，北海石油重鎮）。香港那個 Aberdeen 叫「香港仔」，是用蘇格蘭這地名去命名的，不是同一座城。

    Aberdeen is a port city in northeast Scotland, on the North Sea. For many years it was the big centre for North Sea oil: companies, ships, and workers went out from there to the oil fields. It is also an old granite city, grey in the light, with a university and a fishing past before the oil years. When English speakers say Aberdeen without another place name, they usually mean this Scottish city. There is also an Aberdeen in Hong Kong — a harbour area — but that place was named after a British earl whose title came from the Scottish one, not the other way around. In Britain you will hear Aberdonian for a person from Aberdeen.

組成The first part is from Pictish aber, “confluence” (where waters meet). The second part is the river Don, at Old Aberdeen. Written Aberdon around 1187 and Aberden around 1214. The Hong Kong town is named after George Hamilton-Gordon, 4th Earl of Aberdeen.
