There are 2 possible explanations for the name Chelsea.
1. A place where chalk and limestone was unloaded
Chalks kay - Bastardised to Chelsea over centuries.
2. From the original Strand wnere sand and pebbles were
accumulated Ceoseled in middle English.
Hence Ceoselsea - Chelsea.
2 makes more sense to me.
