Will now know the origins of Milwaukee's name.

Milwaukee is the name of one of the three rivers that run through the city, and comes from a Native American language (I forget which one--Wisconsin has 5 or 6 acknowledged Native American Nations).

Will now know the origins of Wisconsin's name (if she doesn't already know).

Voyageur: What do you call this place?
Native American: Misconset? (I don't savvy your lingo.)
Voyageur: Merci! Wisconsin it is!

Claims to be from somewhere between Minnesota and Wisconsin, but the Phoogle indicates that Minnesota is the correct location.

Even spelt the same.
