Wiki:Pelliot wrote that Nokhai meant a dog. In fact, in the Mongolian language, nokhoi literally means a dog; however it does not necessarily mean a particularly negative and insulting name in its context, since people were called dogs among the Mongols at the time and sometimes presently as nokhduud as in you dogs (guys/men/people). Genghis Khan also called his capable generals dogs of war or men of war. This probably came about because Mongols had a lot of dogs, and dogs were very useful for peoples lives in hunting and warnings.
