The name "Ku Klux Klan" was most likely originated from the Greek word "kuklos", meaning circle. Also, "Klan" was considered another version for the word "clan", so the founders of the KKK must have merged these words together to form the name of their organization, "Ku Klux Klan". All together, the name suggests that the KKK is a circle, or band, of brothers.

Why did the KKK name a highway after Rosa Parks?
Actually, the KKK didn't name the highway after Rosa Parks. The state of Missouri did. They did this because one of the participants in the KKK wanted to participate in the 'adopt a highway' thing, but Missouri said no, and the KKK took it to court and the court said it was unconstitutional not to give the highway to the KKK. BUTT, the state of Missouri found a loophole so that THEY could name the highway. So, in short, the state of Missouri named the highway, not the KKK (Ku Klux Klan). -Unipegutato
