Like the older Disraeli Street, Disraeli Court was named from Benjamin Disraeli, Conservative statesman, Prime Minister 1868 and 1874-1880. Created Earl of Beaconsfield 1876 (John J. Marshall - Belfast Telegraph, 03/03/41, p. 4). Disraeli Street was named after the Prime Minister in the "Story behind the street where you live" by Michael McRitchie in Belfast News-Letter - Monday 23 September 1974.
