Compare earlier Cupar justice n.The name of the town is earliest attested in the 12th cent. in the forms Gedwearde (in a copy of an earlier original, probably of the 11th cent.) and Jedword (a1150). The first element is the name of the river Jed ; the second element apparently originally showed Old English worð court, courtyard, farm (see worth n.²), but was variously altered after it had become opaque (in the form Jedburgh by substitution of burgh n.).
