Supposed to be called Great Hills but someone mis read H for a K and the rest is history
The name Great Kills is derived from a Dutch word meaning "many creeks."
Back then Mafia use to dumb dead body there, hence the word Great Kills.
Lol no it was never great hills.. a kill is a body of water . So it's great body of water. Great kills
