A place where no people currently live; empty of human residents.
From the prefix 'un-' (not) plus 'inhabit' (to live in), from Latin 'inhabitare'. The word developed in English around the 1500s.
Islands being 'uninhabited' is different from being impossible to live on—many uninhabited islands could support people but just don't. Easter Island and Pitcairn Island were both uninhabited before humans arrived, completely changing ecosystems.
