Native American names depend on the specific language of the named individual - a Crow will have a Crow name, a Mahican will have a Mahican name and so on.
Most native names were incorrectly translated into English by people who did not fully understand the name, so many names used and widely known today are not correct translations.
A few examples of Crow names:
Name..............................Correct Translation....................Poor Translation
Aleekcheaahoosh..............Many War achievements.............Plenty Coups
Peelatchiwaaxpaash...........Medicine Raven.........................Medicine Crow
Issaatxaluash....................Many Leggings..........................Two Leggings
Buaashish..........................Fish Appears............................Shows a Fish
Minatehash........................White Goose.............................White Swan
Daxpitchee Daasitchileetash. .Bear Whose Heart is Never Good....Bad Heart Bear
