The Ohio State Buckeyes are named after the buckeye tree, which is native to Ohio and is known for its distinctive, shiny seeds that resemble the eye of a deer. The term "Buckeye" became a symbol of pride for Ohioans, and it was adopted as the nickname for the university's athletic teams in the late 19th century. The name reflects both the state's natural heritage and the university's identity.
