It is a small village situated approximately 3.5 miles southwest of
Pisinemo
, located on the
San Xavier Indian Reservation
. Historically, it has also been known as
Iramit
and
Nestors
. The name is derived from the
O'odham
phrase meaning "root place charco". Tatk Kam Vo was designated as the official name as a result of a decision by the
Board on Geographic Names
in 1941. In their recommendation to the BGN in 1939, the
Office of Indian Affairs
recommended the name be kept as three words, since combining them gave a different meaning. It has an estimated elevation of 1,795 feet (547 m) above sea level.
