Baby names: native american name ideas for boys and girls

Location: Home > lifestyle > Baby names: native american name ideas for boys and girls



Native American names are very interesting as names for new babies because they have so much meaning behind them.  Rooted in forces of nature, religion and personally desired characteristics, they translate into poetic epithets.  They are meant to herald great events and are to be celebrated, as these aptly named babies are welcomed into the tribe. 


In order to give a sampling of names, meanings, attributes and tribe of origin where available, the following is a list, first of girls names and then of boys names.  For ease of use, the lists are in alphabetical order.
