William Clark gave Sacagwea's son, Jean-Baptiste Charbonneau, the nickname "Pompy". Clark also liked to refer to him as "my boy Pomp" and some Shoshone say pomp is a Shoshone word meaning "first born". Clark also named "Pompy's Tower" and nearby Baptiste's Creek near Billings, Montana in his honor.
Sacagawea gave birth during the expedition to Jean-Baptiste Charbonneau on February 11, 1805. William Clark became fond of the child and nicknamed him "Pomp" or "Little Pompy". After the expedition, William Clark offered Toussaint and his family a place in St. Louis and a proper education for Jean-Baptiste (at a time where there was no opportunity for Native Americans to receive an education). After the death of Sacagawea, Charbonneau signed over formal custody of his son and his daughter Lisette to William Clark.
