Mobile Bay was named after the Mobile River, which in turn derives its name from the Mobile tribe of Native Americans who inhabited the region. The name "Mobile" is believed to come from the Choctaw word "maubil," meaning "to sit" or "to stand." The bay itself has historical significance as a strategic location for trade and military purposes, particularly during the Civil War.
