Staten Island is named after the Dutch "Staten Eylandt," which translates to "State Island." This name was given by the explorer Henry Hudson in 1609, in honor of the States General of the Netherlands, the governing body of the Dutch Republic. The island has a rich history and has been part of various governance structures since its discovery, but the name reflects its early Dutch colonial ties.
