The Wurm is said to have received its name from the Celts who settled in the Aachen Basin. It is explained as a derivation of the word warm, which refers to the thermal springs from which the Wurm is partly fed (see also derivation of the city name of Würselen). However, there is no conclusive evidence for this derivation.
