The name "Nitta Yuma" is derived from the Choctaw language.[3] The Choctaw had long occupied this area, for thousands of years before Europeans. The Vick and Willis families developed cotton plantations on Deer Creek after they were first surveyed and offered for sale by the federal government.[4]

It was first named as a CDP in the 2020 Census which listed a population of 8.[5]
