The place name Borgvedel (Bordel) is first mentioned in 1388 as Borchwich . In 1575 / 76 , the name is documented on a bill from the court chapter in Schleswig . The place name describes a ford belonging to the castle ( Old Norse veðill or vaðill ). ^[3] According to another explanation, the suffix was originally called -vig (≈bugt), which later became -vedel . The meaning would then be the bay of the castle.^[4]

The place name Stegsvig was first mentioned in 1412 . The first part is derived from stege for pole, post, pole , last part -vig denotes a bay. Fortifications from the Viking Age have been found in Stegsvig . Opposite the town of Stegsvig is the corresponding promontory Palør (Palørde), which was previously fortified with piling (palisades).^[5]

The farm Østerled or Østerlede was formed in 1821 from 2 united farms and later increased with a whole farm from Stegsvig.
