    you would have no say in it, tribal names are earned and given by the elders/leaders. there are everyday names and sacred names that you do not share with others, my name (Willow Song on Wind) IS my spirit name, it was given to me in a journey.

  • you know. its insulting to see non natives make up stupid names that they THINK sounds native. first of all the popular idea that we name our kids after the first thing seen when they are born is stupid. its not true and just something someone made up. names in our cultures are taken very seriously and are not something to mock. so remember that.

    i'm betting people don't care. they will anyway. no surprise.
