Name originEdit
Kokish is an adaptation of k'wagis, meaning "notched beach", the name of a former village at the mouth of the river. Another meaning given by artist and chief Mungo Martin is that Kokish is a corruption of the Kwak'wala word, Gwegis, for "place where river spreads". Kokish can also be taken to mean a place where two rivers run together.
