epodunk - County Profiles IA
(E2)(L1) http://www.epodunk.com/counties/ia_county.html
Meine Stichproben ergaben, dass es zur überwiegenden Anzahl der Informationen zu US-amerikanischen Verwaltungsbezirken auch Hinweise zur Namensgebung gibt, die meist mit der Formel "The county was named ..." eingeleitet werden.
Dies rechtfertigt die Aufnahme im Etymologie-Portal.

Otherwise: "Iowa" < fr. "Aiouez" "the Iowa(y) People" < Dakota "Ayuxba" ~ "Ayuxwa" 'the Iowa(y) People'. The native name is "Baxoje".
"ayuxwa" = "one who puts to sleep", "beautiful land" (Dakota), "dusty faces" (Sioux)
For that matter, just looking around I found at AOL, which is not bad as far as it goes.

Magnolia (city) Harrison County (W3)
Leider liefert "epodunk" keinen Hinweis. Entweder gab es auch hier eine Magnolienpflanzung wie bei Magnolia Springs, US, AL, oder man wollte dem Ort einfach einen blumigen Namen geben.
