Legend has it that the town’s former name was "Bunga," derived from the plant called bunga which was very abundant in the area. "Bunga" means fruit, thus the name indicates the fruit of the toils of its founders. However, the town was later named San Policarpo after the priest Fr. Policarpo, who celebrated the first mass in the town in 1521.
