The origin of the name for the state of Kentucky is quite interesting, although the exact origin has never been definitively identified. Historically, Kentucky has been spelled as Canetuckee, Cantucky, Kaintuckee and Kentuckee.

There are many theories, some of which have been debunked. One debunked theory is that the name "Kentucky" was a combination of "cane" and "turkey," because there's no known word in any Native American language to prove it. Nor does it mean "dark and bloody ground," although settlers in Kentucky were warned by a young Cherokee Chief named Dragging Canoe that they were purchasing dark and bloody ground, as the area was ancestral hunting grounds.

The more generally accepted theory is that "Kentucky" originated from the Iroquoian word "kenhta:ke," or the Senaca word "kehta'keh," meaning "meadow" or "prairie." Kentucky pioneer George Rogers Clark suggested that name "Kentucky" means "the river of blood". He also thought it may have originated from a Wyandot word meaning "land of tomorrow," from a Shawnee word meaning "head of a river," or from an Algonquian word meaning "river bottom."
