Oyama, British Columbia, got its name from the Japanese word "oyama," meaning "mountain." The name was adopted in the early 20th century when Japanese settlers began to populate the area, particularly around the Okanagan Valley. The name reflects the region's geographical features, including nearby hills and mountains. Oyama was officially incorporated as a village in 1945.
