Land of thunderstorms

Dear Friends
someone told me that Oregon is an ethimological mangling having as root the French word "orage" = thunderstorm. Therefore the linguistic concept underlying Oregon is thunderstorm land. Is it a true concept ? Not enough time to verify. The forecast was correct, the Eclipse 2017 day was a clear sunny day, just swollen the eve by a giant smoke cloud coming from nearby forest fires.

Salutations
Giancarlo
