Wiki上的解釋供雲燕參考：
The Seneca's own name for themselves is Onöndowa'ga:' or O-non-dowa-gah, meaning "Great Hill People"[5][6] The exonym Seneca is "the Anglicized form of the Dutch pronunciation of the Mohegan rendering of the Iroquoian ethnic appellative" originally referring to the Oneida. The Dutch applied the name Sennecaaspromiscuously to the four westernmost nations, the Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca, but with increasing contact the name came to be applied only to the latter. The French called them Sonontouans.[7] The Dutch name is also often spelled Sinnikins[8] or Sinnekars, which was later corrupted to Senecas.[9]
