Gundagai - It is thought the town's name derives from the Wiradjuri Aboriginal peoples' word 'gundabandoobingee' which has been interpreted as meaning 'cut with a hand-axe behind the knee'. It is generally believed that either something was lost in the translation, or the original word or words from which it originated were not recorded accurately. - (Ref- http://www.australiaforeveryone.com.au/nsw_names9.htm).
