Neo Tiew is named after [[Neo Ao Tiew]] (梁後宙）, a prominent Chinese businessman. Neo is credited with the development of the Lim Chu Kang area, where he built roads, houses and a seaport. He was also the founder and [[sheriff]] of Lim Chu Kang Village. In 1967, the British colonial government named a 3.5[[kilometer|km]] stretch of road "Neo Tiew Road" or "Neo Tiew Lane" in recognition of his contributions to the area.<ref name="Toponymics">*Victor R Savage, Brenda S A Yeoh (2003), ''Toponymics – A Study of Singapore Street Names'', Eastern Universities Press, {{ISBN|981-210-205-1}}</ref>
