It shares its name with a tributary of the River Teviot. It is not to be confused with similarly named rivers ("Allen" not "Allan") in Cornwall, Dorset and Northumberland. The name Allan is of Pre-Celtic Indo-European origin. Its original form was Alauna, from the Indo-European root *el-/ol-, meaning "to flow, to stream".
