Congratulations on having a local community centre named after you. Quite the lasting memorial!
Generally speaking I don't approve of naming things after people still alive. An exception has been made in this case.
Who is it named After.?
Cameron house is a place not a person.
Kelso Abbey charters show the area around current Cameron Toll as Camerun or Cambrun or Cambrun. That was around the early 1200s. In Brittonic, 'cam' is a crook or bend. Rynn is a point of land. This may or may not be the derivation but the area (Cameron Toll) has had similar forms of name ever since.
CP the name 'Cameron' which is a Gaelic form for 'broken nose' or 'crooked nose'
