Totegegie (pronounced Totengengie) is an islet on the eastern rim of the reef around the Gambier Islands, French Polynesia. Totegegie's name consists of the combination of two Mangarevan words (the local language, which takes its name from Mangareva, the main island of the archipelago): tote, which means a sandy islet on a reef (the equivalent of motu in Polynesian) and gegie (pronounced gniégnié) which is the name of a small shrub typical of atolls that looks much like a juniper bush without berries.

On Totegegie is to be found the airport for Mangareva and the entire Gambier group. It is also the nearest air access to Pitcairn Island.
