The name Bury is etymologically connected with borough, which has cognates in other Germanic languages such as German Burg 'fortress, castle' and Bereich '(defined) area' Old Norse borg 'wall, castle'; and Gothic baurg 'city'. They all derive from Proto-Germanic *burgs 'fortress'. This in turn derives from the Proto-Indo-European root *bhrgh 'fortified elevation', with cognates including Welsh bera 'stack' and Sanskrit bhrant- 'high, elevated building'.
