This place was first called "Pentridge". Desiring to remove the odium attaching to the name of the penal establishment in that locality, it was decided to rename the town. It was then called "Coburg", in honour of the "Duke of Edinburgh", who was also "Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha".

"Tullamareena" (or "Tullamarine", "Dullamarin") was a senior man of the Wurundjeri, a Koori, (Aboriginal) people of the Melbourne area, at the time of the British settlement in Victoria, Australia, in 1835. He is believed to be present at the signing of John Batman's land deal in 1835. He was known to be a resistor to British occupation of Wirundjeri lands.

Existing placename: "Alfred, Mount"
Traditional Aboriginal name: "Nuggor-yowatie"
Meaning: "mountain ash"
History of existing placename: "Mount Alfred" (Boggy Creek), nr Bairnsdale. According to Howitt (in Smyth 1878b), "Nuggur-yowatie" is "mountain ash": This tree has a bark like ironbark, and the ends of branches are smooth-barked; it grows at a lower elevation than the true "mountain ash".
In recognition of people's attachment to geographic place names, the Geographic Place Names Act 1998 - the legislation that makes provision for the naming of places and features - encourages greater community involvement in the place naming process through the Guidelines for Geographic Names. New names and changes to existing names of geographic places and features are generally made by naming authorities such as local councils, but the names of significant places, for example "The Twelve Apostles", are determined centrally by specially convened Geographic Place Names Advisory Committees.
The Register of Geographic Names, VICNAMES, holds more than 200,000 road and place names including landscape features such as mountains and rivers, bounded localities such as suburbs, towns, cities and regions, and physical infrastructure such as roads, reserves and schools. You are invited to log on to VICNAMES to search for all registered place names in Victoria or track the progress of proposed names that have been submitted to the Registrar of Geographic Names for approval.

I am inquiring about the meaning of "Wooragee" originally "Woorragee" been told that it is "place of peppermint gum" but I differ on the use of "gum" as an aboriginal meaning. I don’t think this would be used.
I think it is the "place of peppermint". I would be interested in clarification of the meaning of this town. Burke
