Quinsigamond

More than nine variations of the name have been seen in the records throughout history (Quinsigamond, Quansigemog, Quansigamaug, Quansigamug, Qunnosuog-amaug). In Native American Algonquian language, Quinsigamond is loosely translated as "the pickerel (or long nose) fishing place." Pickerel is a type of fresh water fish commonly native to inland lakes and ponds.〔'' Indian Names of places in Worcester County, Massachusetts (1848-1921)'' by Lincoln Kinnicutt 1905 p.43〕
==Quinsigamond - Name references==
American Nipmuc Indians named the body of water between Worcester and Shrewsbury, "Quinsigamond", the largest lake in the East. Colonial settlers also adapted the name of the lake for a nearby village. Quinsigamond was also the name given to the area known today as "Worcester." The name for Quinsigamond Community College, was also chosen to honor the rich cultural heritage of Worcester County.〔''Quinsigamond Community College-A Biography'' by Eugene W. Butler, July 1975〕
