Wyoming comes from an Algonquin Indian word meaning "at the big plains" or " large prairie place."
The answer depends on what you define as "landforms". Four, if you count the landforms regions of Wyoming, which are the Great Plains in eastern Wyoming, the Rocky Mountains in western and southern Wyoming, and the Wyoming basin in central Wyoming. More if you break down the regions because there are the Great Plains and the Black Hills, the Middle Rockies and the Southern Rockies, the Yellowstone Plateau, the Wyoming Basin, and dunes and badlands, making that list 8. You can continue by naming specific landforms such as Devil's Tower, and the Yellowstone Plateau, and then you would have hundreds of landforms in Wyoming.
