The name comes from Old English Mameceaster: an old local name, written in Latin as Mamucium (perhaps a breast-shaped hill), plus Old English ceaster, “Roman fort,” from Latin castra, “camp.” Though actually, in Australian and New Zealand shops, manchester with a small m can also mean household cloth — sheets, towels, table linen — because the city once made so much cotton. That sense is rare in American English and not the usual one in Britain either.
