It was founded by settlers from Staryi Kermenchyk, (lit.'Old Kermenchyk') which is now Staromlynivka.

For some time prior to 2016, it was known as Oktiabrske (Ukrainian: Октя́брське; Russian: Октя́брьское, romanized: Oktyabrskoye) until it was renamed to its current name as part of decommunization reforms in Ukraine.
