Westerzee means 'western sea' in Dutch, referring to its position on the Pacific coast. The term was coined by a companion of [[Jacobus Corneliszoon|Jacob Corneliszoon]], [[Simon de Rascon y Tasman]] in 1797. It was first used in an official capacity in 1834 in the charter of town of Oranjehaven; "''de Konnklÿck Tussenland Companie stemm in met de oprichtinck van de Kolonie Oranjehaven op 51e nörderbrîdt, de kust van de westerstî in de jurisdictie Westerzee''".
