Ouachita derives its name from the Ouachita River in Arkansas, which in turn is believed to come from the Choctaw word "Washita," meaning "good hunting grounds." The name reflects the area's indigenous heritage and its significance as a natural resource. Additionally, the Ouachita Mountains, located in the region, further contributed to the adoption of the name for various places, including Ouachita Baptist University and Ouachita County.
