Abstract
This paper mainly discusses the origin of the Khoton people and the designation of this title with reference to multi-lingual literature. The study shows that Khotons are the result of the integration of different ethnic groups who settled in Mongolia. The title of Khoton was given to the group by others and became their self-proclaimed title as a result of evolution.
