Corsham shows up to acquire its name from Cosa's ham, "ham" being Old English for homestead, or town. The community is referred in the Domesday publication as Cosseham; the letter 'R' shows up to have actually gotten in the name later under Norman influence (perhaps brought on by the recording of local enunciation), when the town is reported to have actually been in the possession of the Earl of Cornwall. Corsham is recorded as Coseham in 1001, as Cosseha in 1086, and also as Cosham as late as 1611 (on John Speed's map of Wiltshire).
