As is often the case with the names we use today, Pawnee is not the real name of that group of tribes (the Skidi, Kitkehaxki, Tsawi and Pitahawarita). Its origin is obscure and early explorers called them names such as Pani, Paneassa, Panimaha, Pariki.
The name may come from the Pawnee word parika, meaning a horn (paariiku' in the Skidi dialect) - referring to an early way that some warriors arranged their scalplocks.
