I am looking for the answer to this question as well. A clue to it's meaning is in the Nahuatl language. "Oaxaca" is the Spanish pronunciation of "Huaxacatl".
Huaxacatl may be one complete word or it might be words joined to name that region. An example could be Hua-xacatl. I am looking to see if their is a word in Nahuatl that starts with Hua, and I am also looking up Xacatl.
[If this is your first time learning about Nahuatl to Spanish pronounced words, you might be interested in the following: Aguacate (Avocado in English, Originally Ahuacatl in Nahuatl); Jitomate (Tomato in English, Originally Xitomatl in Nahuatl); Chocolate (Originally Xocolatl in Nahuatl), etc.]
Hope you find your answer! :)
