Help[Opinions] Re: Native American names
in reply to a message by Felie
I almost don't know any First Nations names. I'm in coastal Eastern Canada, where European contact was hundreds of years ago, and most First Nation people have English, French, or whatever- they- like-names.
However, my daughter-in-law has a little first Nation niece, named Kiah, which is said to mean Turtle, in Malaseet.
There's a small reserve quite near where I live, the tribe is Malaseet. People do live there, just in ordinary houses, there's a gas (petrol) station, convenience store, band office, car repair- garage, body repair, panel-fixing, painting, etc..
