Mississippi is named for the Mississippi river which forms its western
boundary and empties into the Gulf of Mexico. The name roughly
translated from Native American folklore means "Father of Waters." The
translation comes from the Chippewa words "mici zibi" meaning "great
river" or "gathering in of all the waters" and the Algonquin word
"Messipi".
