Etymology

edit

A less apt modification of 南霍魯遜南霍鲁逊 (Nánhuòlǔxùn), from (nán), translating Mongolian ᠡᠮᠦᠨ᠎ᠡ (emün-e, south), and a phonetic transcription of Mongolian ᠬᠤᠯᠤᠰᠤᠨ (qulusun, reed), from their former presence in the area. The modification is presumably under the influence of the larger nearby 達布遜达布逊 (Dábùxùn), whose name transcribed a separate Mongolian name.
