"igaunis" meaning in Latvian

See igaunis in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [ˈiɡāūnis] Audio: Lv-riga-igaunis.ogg
Etymology: Probably derived from the old name of a region in Estonia, corresponding to Latin Ugaunia (where the initial u was probably pronounced as ü). It is also possible that the original word was the name of a tribe living to the East of the Germans, called in Latin Inguaeones. These two Latin terms may also be ultimately related.
