The word Mati was derived from the original word "Maati" which means "it dries quickly" in the native tongue. Maati refers to the creek located in the center of the town.

But unlike its meaning, the City of Mati has no indication of drying up in whatever aspect. Just a little over a year after it was declared a component city, Mati is brimming with development. But young a city it may be, Mati has rich tradition and cultures that dates back to more than a century ago.
