Whats your native american name

[stalliont]

I am mostly Italian, a Native friend of mine gave me the name "Singing Hawk" because of my singing voice, and also because I was seen by her as a protector...which I like

`You jokers have to be kidding me right??? And let me guess you all sundance as well ? I called out a dumbass cherokee this past summer for running his damn mouth about stuff the cherokee make up. the cherokee want to be Lakota so bad it makes me sick....hell everyone that calls themselves native want to be Lakota....for fifty bucks ill give you any name you want...so, for all you smiths and johnsons out there...keep your names....I am full-blood Lakota and your nonsense truly upsets alot of people.....

`Umm..bad mood dennis ? .....lmao..

`it doesn't upset me... you should be proud that we are held in such high esteem... just because you say who you are doesn't make you any better than the ones that are here even if they don't have the ndn blood running through them. i could say the say the same thing about Lakota that they want to be Dine'. They are everywhere on our rez...

`Who are the Dine? last dine i heard speak told me that Crazy Horse came from his people and the dine were involved in every major conflict including the Wounded Knee Massacre...lmao....I dont know one Lakota that wants to be dine....i do get upset, rightfully so when white people are trying to convince me that sundance should be shared with all the knuckleheads of the world...and when i hear WE i get upset that 99 percent of the native people out their have white blood running through their veins want to include me in that..sorry but there is no white blood in my body...

`Omg...you are really embarrassing

[walkingbadger (deleted)]

`shows me how much you know about traditional peoples. there are different bands of Lakotas as we "Dine' have different Clans." guess there's only one Lakota you know & it's you. Dine' is our true name meaning "The People." The Dine' won the war against the Japanese. they were know as the "Code Talkers." "Sundance" is your traditional way & it should be kept that way, just as we keep our "Sings" traditional. you make fun of a people you know nothing about, i would never do that to the Lakota Peoples. Crazy Horse would be ashamed of you...

[michigan44 (deleted)]

`There ya go again...I guess there were no Lakota codetalkers? No Navajo codetalkers? Wow...ok....I would embarassed that i would have to give myself a native name...And what do you know about Crazy Horse? He disliked other native tribes more than he did white people....Not making fun of anyone...Just telling simple facts...I just get a kick out people that think so much of themselves that they have to give themselves native names....Good day to you....

`simple minds say simple things... you got no clue.

Hey Dennis/michigan44, Navajo is a bad name given from white people to the Diné. Dine' is their real name of the nation. So better calm your horses down before you write stuff

[wohelo]

`Dennis, How come you're so angry? Did something happen when you were at Wounded Knee school? I wish you well.

I guess I do not understand what the confusion is in a native name.I thought it could be in native tongue or English.Mine was given by a friend that is cherokee,which is Thunderheart,I am Piaute Sioux.
