At an early date, the place was called "Menominee River Junction", because here was the junction between the main railroad line and the Menominee River Branch. The origin of the name "Powers" is uncertain. Several sources claim the village was named after Edward Powers, a civil engineer involved in building the railroad there. Another source claims the village was founded in 1872 and named after Tom Powers, an engineer for the Chicago & North Western Railroad.
