The name "Mississippi" originates from the Mississippi River, which is derived from the Ojibwe word "misi-ziibi," meaning "great river." The river was named by early French explorers who adopted the Native American term. The state of Mississippi was named after the river, reflecting its significant geographical and cultural importance in the region.
