The word "Florida" comes from the Spanish term "Pascua Florida," meaning "Flowery Easter." This name was given by Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León when he arrived on the coast of the region during the Easter season in 1513. The lush, flowering landscape he encountered inspired the name, which translates to "land of flowers."
