Meaning:*
The origin of this name is still today quite uncertain. The theories include: 1) According to a folk theory, the name could derive from a Germanic source, specifically from a Dutch surname “Kortland,” composed of two elements: from the Middle Dutch “cort,” from the Old Dutch “kurt,” from the Latin “curtus” (short, brief) plus the Old High German “lant” (land). In turn, the name means “short land.” In addition to the many U.S. cities, Cortland is a kind of apple among the fifteen most popular in the United States. Cortland has white flesh and is an excellent dessert apple. This apple was developed at the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station in Geneva, New York, in 1898. The apple was named after nearby Cortland County, New York.
