Unicoi was originally known as "Greasy Cove." In 1851, the Swingle brothers opened a post office in the community, and named it "Swingleville." In 1876, Dr. F.H. Hannum obtained control of the post office, and changed its name to "Limonite." When the railroads arrived in the valley in the late 1880s, the name was changed to "Unicoi City," and later shortened to its current form. The town developed in the early 20th century as a shipping point for area mining and logging operations.〔Pat Alderman, "(Unicoi )," ''Greasy Cove in Unicoi County: Authentic Folklore'' (Overmountain Press, 1975), p. 12.〕〔"(Tennessee Place Names and Post Offices )," Tennessee state website (TN.gov).
