Why was it named ‘Santacruz’?

That is the question I was seeking an answer to when I came to this article. Why did a British airfield in India have a Spanish name meaning “holy cross”? Was it a personal surname? It seems like a missing basic fact about the history of the place. — ℜob C. alias ALAROB 17:27, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
