Abstract
Toponymy as an active and resourceful medium is used to explore fieldwork experiences and insularity on Dudley Peninsula, Kangaroo Island. Placenames are employed as memes and means to understand emotional connections to place and to reconcile the 'almost-island' sentiment on Dudley with the larger island(er)-ness of greater Kangaroo Island.
