Lima is named after the Lima River, which flows near the city. The river's name is derived from the indigenous Quechua word "Rímac," meaning "talker" or "speaking." When Spanish conquistadors arrived, they mispronounced "Rímac," leading to the name "Lima" being adopted for the city founded in 1535 by Francisco Pizarro. Over time, this name became established as the official designation for the capital of Peru.
