One source said the town's name comes from a family of homesteaders from South Carolina who settled in the area in the early 19th century. However, another states that the original name of the village, Chepultepec, probably named for the Battle of Chapultepec in the Mexican-American War, was changed to "Allgood" in December 1915.
A local lime manufacturer believed he was not getting repeat business because of the difficulty in spelling the name of the village and persuaded the local postmaster to change the name, with the postmaster giving the village his own name of Allgood. The town was formally incorporated in 1959. In 2010, it became the first locality in Alabama to achieve a Hispanic plurality.
