The name Wyoming is a contraction of the Delaware Indian word mecheweamiing ("at the big plains"), and was first used as a name for the Wyoming Valley in northeastern Pennsylvania. Wyoming is known as the Cowboy State and the Equality State. The latter recognizes Wyoming as the first to specifically give women the right to vote, which it did as a territory in 1869 and retained upon entering the Union. Cheyenne is Wyoming's capital and largest city. "Wyoming," Microsoft® Encarta® 97 Encyclopedia.
