Etymology
Iyoka, or Wiyo:’keh in, is of uncertain etymology. However, it possibly derives from the root -iyo- 'to be good' and the external locative suffix -a’keh, meaning approximately 'it is good there'. In the nation's full official name, Tkëtyohkwiyokweköh is a calque of 共和國 'republic', literally translating to 'where there are all the people at peace'.

Iyoka is also known historically and poetically as Tyohnekaweso’, which means 'where there are many waters'.
