Guam is named after the Chamorro word "Guåhån," which means "to make." The name reflects the indigenous Chamorro culture and language. European explorers, particularly the Spaniards in the 16th century, adapted the name to "Guam" as they documented the islands. This name has persisted through the island's history as a U.S. territory.
