If you are asking yourself, "Why 'Weehawken?'" the name is believed to have been taken from the Lenape tribe's Algonquian language. There was formerly a large population of the Tappan and Hackensack peoples who lived in the area and gave it its name, which means "maize land," among other things and refers to the Palisades.
