The village was established in 1923, when Edith S V McIntyre sold her farm, Tierhoek, to the local Dutch Reformed church council for 6000 pounds. First known as "Rivier Zonder End", the name later changed to the Afrikaans "Riviersonderend".
The name itself was originally a literal translation of the Khoi-khoi name "Kannakamkanna".
