Wekiwa Springs is a census-designated place and an unincorporated area in Seminole County, Florida, United States.

The pronunciation of a soft-"w", sometimes perceived as a "v" or "b", resulted in cartographers mislabeling maps in later years.

An incorrect popular belief is that "Wekiva", means "flowing water",[5] with an authentic Creek-Seminole source, but that just was an alternate spelling used by developers that has fostered differences in spellings.

As of the census[4] of 2010, there were 21,998 people, 8,677 households, and 6,379 families residing in the CDP.

19.3% of all households were made up of individuals, and 6.5% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.
