為紀念伊利諾族印地安人，遂以此為這塊土地命名。伊利諾州的別號是「林肯之地」
(Land of Lincoln)，因為美國的第16屆總統在此長大。伊利諾在1818年加入聯邦，成為美國第21州。它的首府是春田(Springfield)。位於該州北部邊界，密西根湖旁的芝加哥，是美國境內第三大城市。伊利諾州的州花是長於當地的紫羅蘭。
Named for the Illinois Indians, this state is known as the "Land of Lincoln," because it's where the 16th president was raised. Illinois became the 21st state in 1818, and its capital is Springfield. At the northern edge of the state on Lake Michigan is Chicago, the nation's third largest city. The state flower is the native violet.
