The name "Giokto" (Giokton: 玉島; Pheng-im: Gio̍k-tó; literally "Jade Island") is derived from the name of its main island, which was named after the mountain in its center, Gioksua (Giokton: 玉山; Pheng-im: Gio̍k-soa; literally "Jade Mountain"). It is unknown as to when Gioktons began referring to the mountain as "Gioksoa"; the earliest known writings containing the name date back to 800 BCE during the Tsòa Dynasty.<ref>[https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=990918 The Protectorate of Giokto] (16 March 2018)</ref>
