Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Toksook Bay, Alaska" in English language version.
The village was called Nunakauyaq before people started calling it Toksook. When people relocated here, they started searching a new name for it. When people met and began tossing different names around, one of them said—these places we call kangiqutat, are they called bay in English? Then these two young men said that we should call it Toksook Bay [Tuqsuk Bay]. Then that name was picked. The real name [atpi-a] for the place was Nunakauyaq.
Nunakauyaq is the 'real name' (atpi-a) for Toksook Bay (on Nelson Island), while Tuqsuk is a new name given after the river going from the Bay to Negta (Nightmiut) when a part of people moved from the latter village to the new site (David Chanar, p.c.).
