The name originally traced to Oslaf, a Bernician prince exiled from Northumbria, who along with his brother Oswudu allegedly helped King Penda of Mercia conquer the area in the mid-600s. A local landmark was named after Oslaf, "Oslafeshlaw", or "the mound of Oslaf". The name of the mound was later changed to reflect Oswald's name when the location became the meeting place for the triple hundred.
