The name Telogia
I was doing some worldbuilding and trying to come up with a name for a city. I settled on Telogia, but googled it to make sure. Turns out it's the name of an unincorporated community in Florida.
But I looked, and I can't actually find out where it came from. There are few sites that even mention Telogia Creek, and the ones that do just claim that it's a Native American word for palmetto. Which is not very specific, there are a lot of Native American languages. So, which one?
