組成Inherited from Middle English Kent, from Old English Cent, from Latin Cantium, from a Brythonic name *Cantio (compare Old Irish céite, a gathering place or hillock), from Proto-Celtic *kantos ('corner, rim'). The county sits on a corner of England, which fits that old meaning, but the path comes through those older names, not from modern English corner.
