==Etymology==
Otsego may be a Native American name meaning "place of the rock". However, an alternative theory is that it derives from a lake and a county in New York state, which are said to bear the name derived from a Mohawk Iroquoian word meaning either "clear water" or "meeting place."〔(Otsego County history page. )〕 It may be a neologism coined by Henry Schoolcraft, who was a borrower of words and pieces of words from many languages (including Arabic, Greek, Latin, and various American Indian dialects).〔(Michigan government on place names in Michigan )〕 See List of Michigan county name etymologies. The county was initially created in 1840 as Okkuddo (meaning "sickly water," although the reason for using a name with such a negative meaning is lost). The name was changed to Otsego in 1843.〔(Soil Survey of Otsego County, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Michigan State University Agricultural Extension Service )〕 It was organized in 1875.<〔
