The Nankipoo community in Tennessee is believed to be named for the character, Nanki-Poo, in the Mikado, an old Gilbert and Sullivan opera. There are some who claim that it derives from a native language, e.g. Cherokee or Choctaw, but I have seen no evidence for that.Is that the town from The Mikado?
