Best Answer

If you have a name that is in the English language, it will not mean anything in any native American language. Ojibwe (Chippewa) traditional naming traditions are, like all native American names, in the language of that particular tribe and generally refer to some physical characteristic, or recall a famous warrior of the past, or refer to some memorable event, or most often refer to a sacred dream or vision.

It is simply not possible to take an English name, such as Alison (a version of the Anglo-Norman French name Alicia or Alice), and convert it it any native American language.

Ojibwe names look like these:

Anougons'

Enaban'dang

Beshekee

Gichi-weshkiinh

Waubojeeg

Bugonay-geeshig

Mahwedo-keshick
