Yamachiche
Yamachiche ((:ja.ma.ʃiʃ)) is a municipality in the Mauricie region of the province of Quebec in Canada. ==Etymology== The name Yamachiche was first used to identify the Little Yamachiche River (''Petite rivière Yamachiche'') which runs through the town. It came from the Native American (possibly Cree) words ''iyamitaw'' (meaning "much") and ''achichki'' (meaning "mud"). Therefore Yamachiche could have the general meaning of "muddy river", which is a characteristic of this stream. In Abenaki, it was identified as ''Namasis'' (small fish) and ''Obamasis'' (small white fish). The name has gone through many spelling variations: Machiche, Ouabmachiche, Yabamachiche, Hyamachiche, Yamachiste, Amachis, à Machis, à Mashis, Machis, Augmachiche, Ouamachiche, Yabmachiche, etc., which have mainly affected the name of the river, whereas the parish and municipal names have remained more stable.〔
