Whynot was first settled in the 18th century by German
and English people, along with the nearby communities of Erect, Hemp, Lonely,
Steeds, and Sophia. The community was originally spelled with two separate
words, "Why Not".
The origin of town's name came from residents debating
a title for their community. A man finally remarked "Why not name the
town Why Not and let's go home?"
