History
The city's name is said to derive from a small joke among divinity students at Western Reserve College, which in the early 19th century was in Hudson, Ohio. The students, who were called upon to preach in the small hamlet 6 miles (10 km) to the north, recalled a bible passage, Acts 16:10: "...we sought to go to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the gospel to them."
