As in?:

The name "Mukwonago" comes from the original Indian name of "Mequanego" which means "Place of the Bear". Mequanego was once an Indian Village and tribal seat of the Bear Clan of Potowatomi Indians located along the shore of Phantom Lake. The name was changed to Mukwonago in 1844.

No, never heard of it.

Mukwonago is also the hometown of a guy I dated in college who I broke up with when I met the future Mr. ML.

This guy is now a successful (RICH!) lawyer and a pillar of the community.

To quote Margaret Houlihan, "Hey, I'd have loved him if I'd known!!!"

JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!!:)

I always heard it as 'Mewannago', as in an invitation to my favorite watering hole ;-)
