Llantrissant is a Welsh place
name, in fact, the town where the Royal Mint is located. It
was so named by a former owner whose origins may have been
Welsh. Etymologically it means "a yard where lovers meet":
llan means yard and trissant is derived from "tristre" which
means "a secret meeting place in trust" from which the English
word "tryst" is derived. According to the history of the town, the name also means the Church of Three Saints.
