Toponomy means the study of place names. However, the section discusses the meaning of the name of the festival. Ehgarrick (talk) 02:51, 16 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

The section was removed for unclear reasons in this revision, with the following summary: "Violated." I am not sure exactly what is meant by that. The quality is not fantastic (I will try to improve it.), but as far as I can tell, there is nothing warranting removal of the section. If someone disagrees, please provide an explanation!
