Some of you will be interested in a paper that was just published 
in "Onomastica Canadiana" by William Sayers.  (Volume 88, number 1, June 
2006, pages 43-56.)  It's "The etymology of Iroquois: 'Killer people' in a 
Basque-Algonquian pidgin or an echo of Norse Irland it mikla 'Greater 
Ireland'?"  The title says it all.
