Abstract
A clean analysis of a place name as important in geography and history as ‘Missouri’ is concisely presented here in order to correct a mistake in an earlier work on the same name. While a brief correction of that mistake was published, this readily accessible article with the correct etymology of the name will benefit all who come in search of its origin and meaning.
