The statement that
'Onontio is a Mohawk rendering of "great mountain", the folk etymology translation of "Montmagny"'.'
is misleading--the Mohawk word "onontsi" has the meaning "head" and possibly by extension "chief". The source of the folk etymology is Latin, i.e., the name of the first person addressed as Onontio was a M. (de) Montmagny, which name can be Latinised as Monsmagnus = "great mountain". 84.203.56.79 (talk) 19:19, 5 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
