Punkie
[ˈpʌn.ki]Background Story
Punkie is an English word, chiefly used in New England, for a small biting midge or sandfly of the family Ceratopogonidae. In the United States it is also a synonym of pumpkinseed, a North American sunfish. The word comes from Jersey Dutch punkje with the English diminutive suffix -ie, from Munsee pónkwes, itself from Proto-Algonquian penkw-, meaning "ashes" or "dust", probably referring to the insects' small size. The sources checked do not record it as a personal name.
