A controversial recent hypothesis using a study of Miami-Illinois tribal names concludes the word // Moingona // comes from // mooyiiinkweena //, a derogatory name which translates roughly to "the excrement-faces." The name was apparently given to [|Marquette] and [|Joliet] by a tribal leader to dissuade them from doing business with a neighboring tribe. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Des_Moines,_Iowa http://www.desmoinesregister.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20030914/ENT/70323017
