How Washington Got Its Name
how did walla walla washington get its name?
I used to live there, and I always heard that it came from Native American words for “many waters” (that’s why the word is repeated). Specifically, it’s from the Nez Perce tribe and means “place of many waters”
There’s also a Washington state ferry by the same name…and see more details on the link below.
