It is one of many villages in the north of France bearing the name Estrées. The etymology of the name is from strata (cognate of English "street") which developed into "estrée" - the word for the stone-layered Roman roads in the area (some of which turned into modern highways). Hence "Mesnil-sur-l'Estrée", "Mesnil On The Road".
