About OotyThe origin of the name is obscure.
The name probably changed under British rules from Udagamandalam to Ootacamund, and later was shortened to Ooty.
Ooty is in the Nilgiri hills, meaning the “blue mountains”, so named due to the Kurunji flower which blooms every twelve years giving the slopes a bluish tinge.
