Etymology

[edit]

Named after theOust river, generally considered to be ofCeltic/Gaulish origin (the name in Breton isOud) and possibly related to the name of theOltis, or from a derivative ofProto-Celtic*olyos(“all”), if the Gaulish form was a suffixed form of*ollo-(“everything, big”), meaning something like "the big one (river)."^[1]
