==Etymology==
The name of the town is a namesake of a legendary winged hero named by the natives as “''Inong pak-an''”, according to old folks. But history tells that Inopacan is a new name of Canamocan which was a pre-Spanish settlement according to Lee W. Vance in his book, ''Tracing our Ancestor and the analytical understanding of the written manuscripts of the Jesuit missionaries in Leyte''. However, it remains unaccepted despite that Canamocan was mentioned as now 'Inopacan' by some authors like Atty. Francisco Tantuico of the history of Baybay, Locsin on Ormoc's History, and Eduardo Makabenta Sr. on Carigara's History.
