[[Taioaan goanzuxbiin]] originally called the place "Kilai" ({{tts|Kilaai}}, [[wikt:奇萊|奇萊]]). Spanish settlers arrived in 1622 to pan for gold.

[[Zhefng]] Dynasty recorded the name of the region as {{tts|Hoelaan}} (hoee+laan; [[wikt:洄瀾|洄瀾]]; "eddies") due to the whirling of waters in the [[svakakciw|delta]].
