Sayville had no formal name until 1838 when residents gathered to choose one. The townspeople held a meeting to decide on a name, and one resident suggested "Seaville." According to historical accounts, the clerk at that particular meeting did not know how to spell and had to go home and look in an old Bible he had brought from England years before. In the Bible, the word "Sea" was spelled "Say," and "Sayville" became the name he sent to Washington.
