Due to the enforcement of the district government, the district was founded in 1896 when the former Tonami District, occupied the southwestern Etchū Province, split into Nishitonami and Higashitonami Districts.

At the time of founding, the district covered all of the city of Tonami (but the sections of Takanami, Takasu, and Wakabayashi); the city of Nanto (but the Kamiyamada and Yamada sections from the former town of Fukumitsu); the sections of Higashiishiguro and Nishinojiri from the former town of Fukumitsu; and the sections of Nakata and Toidewaka in the city of Takaoka. The district seat was located at the town of De (now the center of the city of Tonami).
