Origins.
Lakki was first called by the name of “Thal Daman”,
which means an open sandy plain. There are three
different stories about the "Lakki" part of the District's
name.
1. One story says that long ago a battel was fought
between the Marwat tribe and Wazir and Marwat tribe
started to unite an army. The army was huge enough
that people say almost 1 Lac Marwat. Then the word
"Lac" become Lakki therefore, it is called Lakki
Marwat.

2.Another story links this name to one Lakki Ram or
Lukko Ram, a Hindu trader who is considered to be the
original founder of this town. Yet another source claims
that the town was initially known as Ihsan Pur.The
second part of the District’s name comes from the
warrior tribe of Marwat who has inhabited the entire
area for several centuries.
3.Third theory about lakki marwat:
In Afghanistan a tribe was living in about 1556 the name
of the tribe is Marwat tribe, during the Akbar-e-Azam
Lord time about 1556–1605.
