Bangor, Maine, derived its name from the Irish word "banger," which means "a term of endearment" or refers to a "musical term." The name was suggested by a local resident, who was inspired by a popular hymn that included the term. The city was incorporated in 1834 and quickly grew into a significant lumber shipping center, contributing to its development and prominence in the region.
