The village was established in its present form in the 1930s as part of the sedentarisation of the semi-nomadic living Chukch native population. The name stands in Chukchi for "land in the haze" ( нутэ , nute from нутэнут , nutenut "land, earth"; пылмын , pylmyn "haze, fog") and refers to a frequent weather situation on the local sea coast.

Nutepelmen is one of those places in the autonomous district whose building fabric was in fact completely renewed in the 2000s.
