Etymology[edit]

Cognate with Buryat хошхоног (xošxonog) and Kalmyk хошхнг (xoşxng), featuring irregular loss of -хо- (-xo-).

Perhaps from a Turkic language, see Common Turkic *kušgun (crupper, reconstruction uncertain).

Alternatively a native derivation equivalent to хос (xos, sheep colon) +‎ *хоног (*xonog), the second part being unidentified.
