I've been told there's also an Alaskan town called "Nome" (derived from "ki-no-me", meaning "I don't know"). Seeing as I just recently found out the story of "kangaroo" being an Australian aboriginal phrase for "I don't understand" is NOT true though, I don't know what to believe (apparently "ganguru" was one of their pre-colonial names).
