The name Notton derives from the Old English hnoctūn meaning 'wether (castrated male sheep) settlement'.

In the Middle Ages the manor was held by the de Notton family, whose most notable member was William de Notton (died about 1365), who was Lord Chief Justice of Ireland. It later passed to the Darcy family.^{[citation needed]}
