I just consulted BCGNIS and there's no name origin info there; by language-origin I'd venture that it's Sekani rather than Carrier - the -eca ending, like the -ika on Osilinka, Mesilinka, Missinchinka, Ospika, etc - seems to be "river" - in Carrier/Dakelh and Tshilhqot'in the same ending is -ko, I think. The best person to ask, unless you can find the Akrigg's Placenames of British Columbia book (and it may not be in there) is User:Billposer who's a specialist in BC Athapaskan languages.Skookum1 (talk) 19:14, 4 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
