Pomoan is a family of seven languages in northern California, with four of them extinct and the surviving ones having fewer than ten speakers, except Kashaya. These languages are geographically close, but they are surrounded by languages from different families. The family includes Eastern, Southeastern, Northern, Central, Southern, and Southwestern Pomo, as well as Northeastern Pomo, which is somewhat isolated due to the presence of unrelated Yuki and Patwin languages nearby. The term "Southwestern Pomo" has been replaced by "Kashaya," and there is no widely used term for the other languages. The name "Pomo" itself was created by merging two distinct Northern Pomo words and was adopted to refer to all these related languages.

The Pomo are a Native American people of California. The name Pomo derives from a conflation of the Pomo words [pʰoːmoː] and [pʰoʔmaʔ]. It originally meant "those who live at red earth hole" and was once the name of a village in southern Potter Valley near the present-day community of Pomo, California in Mendocino County. It may have referred to local deposits of the red mineral magnesite, used for red beads, or to the reddish earth and clay, such as hematite, mined in the area.
