Hong Kong Name

I think it would help you better if you know Chinese, which I assume you do, given you are able to use this site :)

The literal meaning of 'Hong Kong' in Chinese is 'fragrant harbour'. Many years ago, when Hong Kong was still a fishing village, some Hong Kong people grew incense trees (or known as joss stick trees) to make incense to be sold to China and some other Southeast Asian countries. The Hong Kong people back then called this place 'Hong Kong', meaning 'fragrant harbour'. 'Hong Kong' is the English name that came from 香港

追溯至明清時代了，那時香港還沒有特定的名字，屬廣州府新安縣管轄。當時東莞、新安一帶盛產一種叫「莞香」的香木樹。莞香聞名全國，具有甚高的經濟價值。在東莞及新安出產的莞香會先運到尖沙咀的碼頭，然後再用小船運往石排灣(即現在的香港仔附近)，接著便從這裏用大船轉運至廣州，銷售到江浙等地。石排灣由於作運輸香木之用，因而被稱為香港。此名稱逐漸延伸至整個小島，香港由此而得名。
