The name of Xinmin City comes from Xinmintun in the early Qing Dynasty (Later Jin Dynasty). According to the "Research on Manchurian Place Names", there were very few original residents here. In the early years of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty, many new immigrants were recruited to cultivate the area, and a village was formed, commonly known as Xinmintun.
