Wawa: Behind the Name, a Rich Etymology from Around the World

June 18, 2020 | FlaglerLive | 8 Comments

The town of Wawa in Ontario, Canada, claims its enormous sculpture of a wild goose is among "the most photographed landmarks in North America." The original goose fell apart and was replaced in 1963--a year before the opening of the first store bearing the Wawa name, though the two events were unrelated--with the current steel structure. (Dave Emmett)

The Wawa name has come to be almost synonymous with the company, as if it were its origin. In fact, the word–the sound, the name–has innumerably rich applications around the world.

Weeks after cancelling its permit applications, Wawa, the much-anticipated convenience store planning at site at Bulldog Drive and State Road 100, on Monday re-filed a permit application with Palm Coast government.

The permitting process for a planned Wawa at the corner of State Road 100 and Bulldog Drive was cancelled last week, ostensibly so the developer could switch contractors, when plans would be resubmitted.
