Chincoteague is derived from the Algonquin word "Tsingateague," which means "land across the water" or "small island." It refers to Chincoteague Island, located off the coast of Virginia, known for its wildlife refuge and the famous Chincoteague ponies. The name reflects the area's geographical features and its historical ties to Native American heritage.
