Where this word comes from

The name is first attested in 1146 in a Silesian charter as Legnitz, L’gniz. The origin is uncertain but theories include: * A relation to łęg (“flood-meadow”), * related to Proto-Slavic *ležati (“to lie, be situated”), * or of Celtic origin and connected to Proto-Celtic *Lugus, a Celtic god identified with Mercury. In this case, it would be related to Lugdunum (modern Lyons in France).
