There's this one from my country (Singapore) that explains how a place named Redhill, got its name.

Summary:
It's a tragic tale, actually. There was a village by the sea that kept getting attacked by swordfish leaping out of the water. A boy, who witnesses this, comes up with an idea to erect bamboo posts along the coast that trap the attacking swordfish. However, the village chief gets jealous of the boy's newfound fame and kills him.
The boy's blood stained the land forever, and thus the hill that he died on was named Redhill.
