Origin of the name Tonghua City was established in the third year of Guangxu (1877) and was first called "Tonghua".
The name "Tonghua" means auspicious blessings and cultural and martial arts.

There are different opinions about the origin of the place name Kuai Damao. One theory is spread among the people. One theory is that an official came from the capital during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty. It was the ninth day of winter here and the people took off their hats and knelt down to worship. This official was very special.
Taking pity on the people, he hurriedly said: "Hurry up and put on your hat", and it has been passed down as a place name since then; secondly, people were reclaiming and farming here in the Qing Dynasty. At that time, the mountains and forests were dense here, and there was a fast-flowing river on the west side of the village.
At the turning point, when the wooden handle is released, it is necessary to hit the anchor quickly, which is called "quickly hit the anchor". The pronunciation of the release is changed to "kuai Damao". The third theory is that the west side of the mountain was a wind outlet in ancient times, and people often walked here.
After scraping off the hat, it was called "quickly put on the hat", and later it became a place name; four said yes.
Kuai Damao is a Manchu word, because there were Taiwanese soldiers guarding here, and it means outpost; Wu said it was named after Mao Mao Mountain on the north side of the village. It is said that every time after the rain, the mountain in this village is shrouded in fog.
From a distance, the top of the mountain looks like it is wearing a hat, hence the name.
According to the "Tonghua County Chronicle", the place of Kuaida Mao has long been the political township of the Manchu people.
The mountains here are undulating and the forests are dense. It is said that a long time ago, Aixinjueluo Nurhaci, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, once led his troops to camp here while he was fighting. He saw the beautiful mountains and rivers here and the lush greenery, so he called this place "quickly become a hat" before leaving.
".
This term is Manchu and its meaning is "evergreen forest".
Later it was passed down as a place name.
Later, the pronunciation gradually changed to "Kuaidamao".
According to records in different editions of "Tonghua County Chronicle", the pronunciation of the name of Kuai Damao has gone through three stages: the late Qing Dynasty tablet version records that from the early Qing Dynasty to the late Qing Dynasty, it was called "Juedang Mao"; the version recorded in the Republic of China, in the early Republic of China
In the early days of the Manchukuo period, "hat" was changed to "mao"; in the twenty-ninth year of the Republic of China (1940), the version records that "dang" was changed to "da" during the period of the puppet Manchukuo period; after that, it was spread as "kuai da mao", which is still the name today.
