The name Inkerman is said to mean 'cave fortress' in Turkish. During the Soviet era, the area was known between 1976 and 1991 as Bilokamiansk () or Belokamensk (), which literally means 'white stone city', in reference to the soft white stone quarried in the area and commonly used for construction. In 1991 the Ukrainian authorities restored the pre-1976 name.
