I have a little fawn pug. He is 9 weeks old and I have not named him yet. I would like a strong name for him. He is a singleton pup and very independent. I want him to grow up to follow his name.

Here is the Blackfoot word for warrior: áwaawahkao’tsii . Oniiniiwat is another variation on the translation from warrior. I hope that helps!

What is the black foot word for protector and warrior?

I just got a beautiful make Yorkie. I'm looking for a Native American name meaning strength and friendship. He's the runt, always my favorite, and should top out at 4-5 lbs. He will go everywhere with me. He has some chocolate coloring now, but should shed off to be blonde. I'd really appreciate your suggestions! Thanks so much!!

Hi. I will be bringing home a male pembroke welch corgi and am interested in a native american name for him. I found the name Tihkoosue (meaning:short). I also found below in the comments the name Takoda. I already had on my list the name Dakota. We traveled out to Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota a couple of times and we loved it. I was toying with the idea of giving him an ironic type name meaning something big (referring to his personality), instead of small or short (referring to his size). Just a quick funny, I was considering Teton, until I found it appears to refer to women's breasts. lol. Do you have any recommendations. He are a few things you might consider to help us. We have a female corgi, her name is Stormy. He will be tri-colored. We have a small farm with cabin type home in the foothills of NC, raising beef and honeybees.

Hi Josie:

What would you guys suggest for a black and white clover masked husky puppy? I was hoping for a good fitting name in Sioux or Cherokee but anything cute would work. He sorta looks like this. http://cdn-www.dailypuppy.com/media/dogs/anonymous...

Hi Solaras, well the test post didn't work and I still can't access the password not found page so I will post this and await moderation. Thank you so much for trying to help!

He's a young male about 18 mos old, supposed to be very friendly. He's mostly black *long coat* German Shepherd with mahogany red coloring on his legs and around his eyes, kind of raccoon'ish-like.

We are looking for a shortish 2-3 syllable *gentle* name even though he's a German Shepherd. Nothing scary sounding, nothing cute sounding. We want noble/proud/dignified sounding. Our dogs are our furry kids :)

I will give you the ideas we've been tossing around:

______________________________

He is currently in a shelter, brought in as a stray and we'll be traveling 6 hours one way to bring him home, so something involving wandering since he was a stray or long journey since he will have a long journey and we don't know how far he traveled before he was found either.

Several people have seen photos, say he's gorgeous and that he's got intelligent eyes.

He'll be a little brother to 2 sisters.

_______________________________

I found a few but not sure on the pronunciations, maybe you could let me know if I've got the pronunciations right?

Tiquanna (tee quan nah?) supposed to mean adopted son

Koda (koh dah?) supposed to mean friend

Misun (mee soon?) supposed to mean little brother

Thank you again for your help!

We are getting a new dog soon and I'd *love* to give him a meaningful Native American name. All the sites I've found are very limited with names. I've tried a few online translation sites which turn out to be useless and my searches have not found any human translators. Looks like Rosetta Stone can't help either (yes, I'm getting desperate). Does anyone know where I could find a good translator or someone reliable that could help me with this? Thank you! Deb

Geronimo does not mean he who yawns. That is English for Jerome. The Mexicans could not pronounce his real name. Facts should be checked before publishing

i love these animal names

A playful and extremely loyal white German Shepherd met us in our driveway as we pulled in last night. After spending the night on our deck facing in ad to keep watch on our Family we are praying she is a stray. Our first stop this morning is to the pet adoption set up at the gun show to scan for his microchip. This dog seems to be well cared for and eagerly let me brush him out. If we get to keep him since he chose us, naming will be next. Hubby has already began calling him "Ghost" which he answers to. I want to offer him up a unique Native American middle name or a Military K9 name. Any suggestions? He seems to be around 9 months to a year old. Blessings abound!

Looking for miniature dachshund male names (dapple, brown, light tan, brown nose and blue eye's) open to any and all suggestions and help please

Fantastic!! We had been looking for an appropriate name for our black puppy arriving in 6 weeks time. Thanks to your listing of many wonderful names we have chosen SUKI (meaning black).

This name sings on the tongue and we can't wait to start calling this when she comes home at the age of 9 weeks.

Like ouch but gou ga is how you say Lightning in Blackfoot.

I have a rescue named "Takoda". He lives up to his name. =)

does any one know how to say lightning in blackfeet i got a new dog today and need help finding a name

Solaras,

You better believe Micco was the boss/chief of the house :)

I am putting the finishing touches on a Native American kids book and found your list of names very interesting. Even more interesting is 2 of my moms pets had names from here. Her bird was named Miwok and her cat was Micco.

That does sound familiar, now that you mention it. But I don't remember either. Hopefully there will be good news on facebook later.

Another fascinating hub, and interesting timing. That's the second time the name Makwa has come up today. A local wolf biologist friend named his dog Makwa (he looked like a bear cub as a puppy) and though I don't know the details, Makwa is needing positive thoughts today toward pulling through some type of serious illness or injury.

Great hub, thanks for posting it.
