Tennis was originally called Lawn Tennis. From the area where the game was played. It has connections to all field/lawn type games and is derived from the game of "real tennis" or "royal tennis" sometimes referred to as the sport of kings. The term has been around since about the 12th century to distinguish it from the ancient games.
