No, Native Americans are from tribes like the Cherokees and other tribes. They originated in America.

Are Native Americans the same as American Indians?
Yes, though "Native Americans" is much more correct than "American Indians". The early explorers accidentally mistook the natives for Indians because they did not know a world outside of Asia, Europe and Africa. They sailed west thinking they would hit India, but instead ran into America. Because they thought they landed in India, the Indian term stuck, even though the Native Americans are not Indians. (Indians are Caucasians while Native Americans are more related to East Asians).

No they have different cultures. In the United States, Native Americans are also referred to as Indians and American Indians.

I know; it's confusing.
