Chicago is derived from the Native American tribe (Algonquian) and means: onion or skunk. It could also mean "Smells bad" depending on how it is used.
It refers to a place where there is skunks. In the ojibwe language, places of reference often end in the 'o' suffix and the root word is 'chigag' which refers to the skunk. So the translation would be or at least how i understand it in my ojibwe language is ' a place where the skunks come from, a place where there is skunks, a place where you find skunks' depending on how you would use the word in the ojibwe language.
