The first written source where "Toletum" appears is in the work of the Roman historian Tito Livio, according to which "Toletum" would originate in "Tollitum", which would give "Tollitu", "Tollito", "Tolleto", "Tolledo", "Toledo". His meaning "would be raised, in high place". Martín Gallego gathers the version of "the double returns or hooks that forms the river that surrounds it". The writer of the XIIth century, Abú Ab-Dín to the-Ayubí, affirms that "Tulaitula" means "make it happy", without giving more explanation.
