Best Answer

They were named by different types of people.

Most commonly were from the Native Americans, their tribes named some places after their leaders or tribes.

Land that was owned by Mexico were named by Mexican natives before the land was sold to America.

Unnamed land, or land stolen by the Europeans from the Native Americans was re-named to names we know today by the Europeans, or White people. Explorers also named some land.

Immigrant based cities named some cities also, immigrants vary from different countries.
