Even if you are only 13...
Your errors are many, not just spelling. I had to re-read several times just to (maybe) make sense of it.I don't know the meaning, but Chaska sounds too gruff in my ear for me to consider using.

I agree. I am 13, and have a fine time using correct grammer. If English wasn't your first language, it would be O.K.; however, if it is your first language, and you are 13, then you should atleast attempt.

I could read, spell, and also had good grammar when I was 13. And netspeak isn't allowed on this board, whether you can spell the real word or not.

It does sound rather Native American, like Dakota or Shasta.
I think it's neat, although I wouldn't use it.

I think it is very Unique and different. But you know what having a unique and different name is a great way to stand out from all the overly used and boring names :)

George R. Stewart's American Place-Names says that the name of the town in Minnesota is a Siouan name that was "a name given to the first-born child" originally.

This is the second time someone's brought up...Chasca / Chaska in the space of a month: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/arcview.php?id=759488&board=babyChaska's where Prince used to live. It's not a name for a person, as far as I'm concerned.Array
