Bemidji, Minnesota
Bemidji ( ) is a city in Beltrami County (and county seat〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=2011-06-07 )〕), in North West Minnesota, United States. With a population of 13,431 at the 2010 census, it is the largest commercial center between Grand Forks, North Dakota, and Duluth, Minnesota. Bemidji houses many Native American services, which includes the Indian Health Service. The city is the central hub of the Red Lake Indian Reservation, White Earth Indian Reservation and the Leech Lake Indian Reservation. Bemidji lies on the southwest shore of Lake Bemidji, the northernmost lake feeding the Mississippi River and, as such, is deemed "the first city on the Mississippi." Bemidji is also called the "curling capital" of the U.S.
==Etymology==
Its name derives from the Ojibwe ''Buh-mid-ji-ga-maug'' (Double-Vowel orthography: ''bemijigamaag''), meaning "a lake with crossing waters". On occasion, in Ojibwe, the city of Bemidji is called ''Wabigamaang'' ("at the lake channel/narrows"), because part of the city is situated on the Lakes Bemidji/Irving narrows, located on the south end of Lake Bemidji, and extends to the eastern shore of Lake Irving. Some sources also credit the name to Chief Bemidji, an Ojibwe chief.
