It tells how Noccalula, a Cherokee Indian maiden, was being forced by her father to married a Chief from a neighboring Creek Indian tribe. Her father arranged a marriage between Noccalula and a Creek Indian Chief in order to bring peace between the two Indian nations, but she was in love with a warrior in her own tribe.

The falls have been known as Noccalula Falls ever since that fateful day.
