The name Yamachiche was first used to identify the Little Yamachiche River (Petite riviÃ¨re Yamachiche) which runs through the town. It came from the Native American (possibly Cree) words iyamitaw (meaning much) and achichki (meaning mud). Therefore Yamachiche could have the general meaning of muddy river, which is a characteristic of this stream. In Abenaki, it was identified as Namasis (small fish) and Obamasis (small white fish).
