The origin of the city's name is unclear. In one version, the name comes from the archaic Romanian word chișla (meaning "spring", "source of water") and nouă ("new"), because it was built around a small spring, located at the corner of Pushkin and Albișoara streets.[2]
An alternative version, by Ștefan Ciobanu, Romanian historian and academician, holds that the name was formed the same way as the name of Chișineu (alternative spelling: Chișinău) in Western Romania, near the border with Hungary. Its Hungarian name is Kisjenő, from which the Romanian name originates.[3] Kisjenő in turn comes from kis "small" + the "Jenő" tribe, one of the seven Hungarian tribes that entered the Carpathian Basin in 896 and gave the name of 21 settlements.[4]
Interesting, what do Moldovans think?

Kisjeno sounds more original.

The toponym must come from Rumanian. The Hungarians pastured their horses for a few year in Bessarabia before they moved on to Pannonia but they never established any cities in Moldova. Only in Pannonia and Transylvania they established cities after King Stephen converted to Christianity in 1000 AD and they stopped being nomadic.

Well, the name of Suceava is of Hungarian origin and the city lies in Moldavia.

Well, the name of Suceava is of Hungarian origin and the city lies in Moldavia. It could also be from Sucidava, the name of an ancient Dacian settlement. |

How can it be a fable when Moldavia was founded by Vlach aristocrats from Maramures and Wallachians still retained f*garas? You lost it, man. I told you you would lose your touch, as you grew older, this is exactly what happened. |

Hungarian chronicles also tell of a Latin population living in Pannonia, which later moved into Transylvania. But we choose not to believe any of that....
Even if some Vlachs were settled in Maramures, it doesn't mean there wasn't a Vlach presence there, already.
