[[Taioaan goanzuxbiin|Taiwanese aborigines]] originally called the place "Kiray" ({{GS|Kilaai|奇萊|shortened from "Sakiraya"}}). Spanish settlers arrived in 1622 to pan for gold. Picking up the sounds of native words, these settlers called the area ''Turumoan'' ({{wt|多羅滿}}). [[Harnzok|Han]] settlers arrived in 1851. [[Zhefng-tiaau|Qing dynasty]] recorded the name of the region as '''{{XL|Hoee-laan}}''' or {{GS|Hoee-lieen|洄瀾|"eddies"}} due to the whirling of waters in the [[svakakciw|delta]]. | |||
During [[Taioaan Jidpurn sitai|Japanese era]], Japanese governors opted not to transliterate "Kilai" because it sounds similar to "dislike" ({{jid|嫌い|kirai}}) in Japanese. The official name became ''Karenkō'' ({{wt|花蓮港}}), eventually shortened to just ''Karen'' ({{wt|花蓮}}). | |||
