cognates
* Middle Low German mone, möne (Dutch meun, West Frisian meun)
* Old High German muniwa, munuwa, munewa (modern German Münne (“minnow”))
* Latin mēna (“small sea-fish”)

cog

Most minnows are small fish with cycloid scales, soft rays supporting their fins, and toothless jaws. Some possess barbels on their upper jaw, and many species develop nuptial tubercles during the breeding season. […] Minnows are arguably the most difficult group of freshwater fishes to identify, in part because they are often small and thus the characters distinguishing them are correspondingly small.

2004, Robert G. Werner, “Carps and Minnows: Family Cyprinidae”, in Freshwater Fishes of the Northeastern United States: A Field Guide, Syracuse, N.Y.: Syracuse University Press, →ISBN, page 74:

The common minnow (Phoxinus phoxinus), a small freshwater fish of the carp family Cyprinidae which has a green back with black elongated blotches, commonly swimming in large shoals.

[…] On these fibres the ova are deposited, and they are then either purposely partly covered with sand by the minnie, or else the particles that are brought down by the current gather over the bundle of fibres and conceal it, excepting one small spot.

1879, R[ichard] J[efferies], chapter XIX, in Wild Life in a Southern County […], London: Smith, Elder, & Co., […], →OCLC, page 356:

vobla

The „vobla“ (Leuciscus rutilus Lin.) is one of the most important food fishes of this region. […] This vobla is very fat and is more stoutly built, than the northern roach, but cannot otherwise be distinguished from the same.

1900 September, Einar Lönnberg, “Short notes on Caspian fishes”, in Revue Internationale de Pêche et de Pisciculture, Volume II, Number 2, Russian Imperial Society of Fishculture and Fisheries, page 4

In this connexion, the cost of “vobla,”¹ which to some extent replaces the herring, has soared upwards. […] Dried “vobla,” which is a popular article of food, and was formerly sold at one copeck per fish, now sells at from 5 to 10 copecks for the smaller fish, and 20 copecks for the larger. ¶ […] ¶ The only exceptions to the general rule are white sturgeon, salmon and to some extent “vobla.”
¹ An inferior species of herring.

1918, I. Pelferoff, “Fisheries”, Chapter IX of Arthur Raffalovich (editor), Russia: Its Trade and Commerce, P. S. King & Son, page 221

For most it was bread and vobla, an awful salt-fish, nicknamed “Soviet ham,” whose bones would splinter and damage the intestines. […] But in the spring of 1921, […] the average employee was back to a half pound of bread, one pound of cereal, and two pounds of vobla.

1989, Mary McAuley, “Bread without the Bourgeoisie”, in Diane Koenker et al., editors, Party, State, and Society in the Russian Civil War, Indiana University Press, →ISBN, page 167:
