The two villages of Nemmara and Vallangi were important trade centres in the past. In fact, the name Nemmara is believed to have been originated from the words 'nai maariya ooru', meaning 'the place where ghee was traded'. Another possible source might be 'nenmaniyude ara', which means 'the store room of rice.'
