The name "Weyauwega" ({{IPAc-en|w|aɪ|.|ə|ˈ|w|iː|ɡ|ə}} {{respell|wy-ə|WEE|gə}}) means "Here we rest" because the town's origin was a stopping/resting point between two rivers when Indians had to portage their canoes. A fur trader built a small building at the location, from which the town later grew.
