The town takes its name from the Miami Indians and is pronounced "My-am-uh". Wayland C. Lykins was the son of a missionary to the Peoria Indians. He wanted to be a cattle rancher and so came to Indian Territory where there would be plenty of grazing land. Continuing to follow his dream, he went to Washington D.C., got the town site of Miami approved, and on March 2, 1891, Miami became the first chartered town in Indian Territory.
