Mythological name.

Kunuk is either an antiquated name from myths, whose meaning has become obscure, or as believed by some Canadian Inuit, it could be a hypocoristic name. Perhaps a short form of 'inequnaq' (Sweet/cute One): 'unukunuk' -> 'kunuk'. Several Greenlandic names belong to this category, see: Natuk and Kuluk.

Number of name bearers: Kunuk (in Greenland) 136. Kunuk (in Denmark) 20.
