==Etymology== The first datable attestation of the name Chattenden is in October 1281, as Chattindone, alongside other early spellings such as Chetindunam, Chatendune, and Chetyndone. Scholars agree that the final syllable comes from the Old English word ("hill"), but the origin of the rest of the name is debated. A personal name, *Ceatta, followed by the Old English place-name-forming suffix -, has been suggested, in which case the name meant "hill at Ceatta's place". Since the people of nearby Chatham were known as the , * ("the hill of the people of Chatham") is possible.
