The name likely referred to a river or waterway that was shared or divided among communities or landowners.

The earliest known record of the name LUALHATI can be found in the ancient Spanish census documents from the 1500s, which documented the names of Filipino families living in the region now known as Bulacan province. The name was often spelled in various ways, such as "Lualati," "Lualhate," or "Lualhati," reflecting the challenges of transcribing native Filipino names into the Spanish alphabet.

One of the earliest known bearers of the name LUALHATI was Pedro Lualhati, a local chieftain who lived in the town of Calumpit, Bulacan, in the late 16th century. Pedro was recorded as a prominent leader in the area and was responsible for negotiating with Spanish colonial authorities on behalf of his community.
