Nilgiri etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Nilgiri : *gonḍ[ä]
Meaning : knob; knot of hair
Kota : goṇḍ "knob on end of walking-stick, head of pin"
Toda : kwɨḍy "Badaga woman's knot of hair at back of head (< Badaga koṇḍe)"
Additional forms : Also Kota koṇḍ knot of hair at back of head
Notes : The Toda form is most probably a borrowing indeed. The Kota form is also slightly suspicious because PN *gonḍä should have yielded Kota geṇḍ (however, it might be dialectal).
