Etymology: < (i) Choctaw Košatta, and its etymon (ii) Koasati Kowassá·ti, self-designation, of unknown origin.The 19th-cent. English forms with -on- (e.g. Conchatta) may have originated as misreadings of handwritten -ou- , or perhaps show influence from the unrelated Conshac , formerly used to denote several peoples of the region. Compare also the 18th-cent. French forms †Conchatez and †Conchati , both plural, apparently denoting the Coushatta. The preferred form in anthropological literature is Koasati, different groups of the people themselves use Coushatta and Quassarte, respectively.
