Missouri History:: Origin of Missouri. Missouri gets its name from a tribe of Sioux Indians of the state called the Missouris.
The state was much smaller than the territory. The area to the west and northwest of the state, which had been in the territory, was commonly known as the Missouri Country until May 30, 1854, and certain of the post offices in this area show a Missouri abbreviation in the postmark.
