Toponymie

Le mot « Morumbi » est un terme indigène d'origine Tupi qui peut signifier « mouche verte » (moru : mouche ; et mbi : verte). L'ethnologue Eduardo Navarro soutient que « Morumbi » a d'autres significations, comme le Tupi « maromby », dont le sens est « rivière des grands poissons » (maromba : grand poisson ; y : rivière), ou « marumbi », un terme portugais qui signifie « lagune pleine de quenouilles ».

Projet

La station figurait dans le projet de la ligne 4 - Jaune daté de 1997.
