HistoryTlingit Indian name recorded as Kitschk-hin by Arthur or Aurel Krause in 1881, and evolved in the present name Ketchikan. It has been suggested that the name means eagle wing river derived from the fact that a boulder in the stream at the falls broke the water giving the appearance of the spread wings of an eagle. This suggested meaning has not been verified and may be a form of folklore. The name Fish Creek was reported as local usage in 1883 by US@C&GS.
