==Name== The word konotop denotes a place where horses drowned, that is, any swampy, impassable place. The word itself comes from "horses stomp", which was transformed into a noun with the help of the word-forming method of baseline. Konotop is a common Slavic toponym; settlements with this name exist not only in Ukraine, but also in Poland, Belarus and Russia. In several dialects of Ukrainian, the konotop () also refers to the herbaceous plant, common knotweed.
