Before it was named Dominica, the island was referred to by the indigenous Kalinago people as "Waitukubuli," which means "tall is her body." The name Dominica was given by Christopher Columbus when he sighted the island on a Sunday (Dominica in Latin) in November 1493. The island has retained this name since its European discovery.
