About Eloy, AZ
Also known as
- Eloi
- Cotton City
History
The railroad switch ws named 'Eloi' by the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1902, but the Spanish form was adopted locally. The townsite, established in 1918, was called 'Cotton City' for the cotton grown in the area, but Eloy prevailed as the post office, established in 1919, retained the old name for simplicity (AZ-T101).
Name history sourced from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) — public-domain federal geographic-names data.
