What is the word origin meaning of Lake Huron?

The word "Huron" in Lake Huron comes from the Wyandot (also known as Huron) people, an indigenous group who lived in the area.

* Wyandot is derived from the Huron language word "Wyandot" or "Wendat", which means "people from the bay" or "island people".

It's important to note that while the lake is named after the Wyandot people, they have no connection to the word "hurricane." The connection between the two is purely coincidental.
