The name 'chipmunk' originates from a combination of 'chip' meaning 'to cut with a sharp tool' and 'munk' which refers to 'squirrel' in some contexts. It can be interpreted as a 'squirrel-like small animal'. Additionally, the term has been in use since the 19th century, possibly derived from Algonquian languages, specifically referring to a certain type of squirrel found in North America.
