Before being named Chicago, the area was referred to as "Fort Dearborn" due to the U.S. military fort established there in 1803. The name "Chicago" itself, adopted in 1833, comes from a Native American word, likely Miami-Illinois, meaning "striped skunk" or "onion place," referring to the wild leeks or garlic growing in the region.

No we always thought you were stupid. It was a rhetorical question. You didn't need to prove it.
