The name Romaine, in use since the end of the 19th century, is a French adaptation of the Native American term Ouraman or Ulaman as noted by Jean-Baptiste-Louis Franquelin in 1685, while Jacques-Nicolas Bellin wrote Ramane on his map of 1744. It comes from, meaning "vermilion" or "red ochre". Deposits of this material are found on the banks of the Olomane River.

Basin

The Romaine River  basin covers.
It lies between the basins of the Mingan River to the west and the Ours River to the east.
About 15.5% of the basin is in Labrador north of the provincial boundary.
In Quebec the basin includes parts of the unorganized territory of Lac-Jérôme and the municipality of Havre-Saint-Pierre.
The Mine du lac Tio, an iron and titanium mine, is in the river basin.
It also includes the proposed Buttes du Lac aux Sauterelles biodiversity reserve.

 Puyjalon River
 Allard River
 South-East Romaine River
 Abbé-Huard River
 Garneau River
 West Garneau River

Hydroelectric development

The Romaine River is being developed by Hydro-Québec for hydro-electric power generation. Construction started in 2009 on a new hydroelectric plant, along with four rock-filled dams and a  long access road, that will take 11 years to build at an estimated cost of 6.5 billion. Called "the biggest construction project in Canada", the project will employ an estimated 2000 people between 2012 and 2016, and create some 3.5 billion in economic spinoffs.

The final project will include four new power plants with a total installed capacity of more than 1550 MW and an average annual production of 7.5 TWh per year:

This project is controversial however, as the cost of electricity production will likely be higher than the price at which the electricity will be sold, as shown in a
