Etymology

In the parish was also del Wra de Cumdouok 1292Ass .

As suggested by Sir Ifor Williams, this is probably from British *cumbā , 'valley.' There is no stream to which this name can naturally be referred, and the second element is probably the personal name name, OBrit. *Dubācos , 'Black'; cf. Devoke Water (La).
