"Pachaug" is a term in the Island Honeoye language meaning "at the turning place". The term refers to the prominent location of Pachaug at the tip of the Chenango Peninsula, and likely directly refers to where canoes and ships would have to "rotate around" the bulge-like promontory Pachaug sits upon.
