They lived in semi-permanent homes year round in the Prairies because they were a migratory people. Of course, once white settlers came and set up the Hudsons Bay posts all over the place, trade began to occur between Plains Indians and the white settlers, and the Plains Indians began to be reliant on the goods they got from the Hudsons Bay company. Once this happened, they were no longer migratory as they relied on the Hudsons Bay company's goods, and so they stayed where the trading posts were so that they could trade with the Hudsons Bay company.
The very very original name was "The Governor and Company of Adventurers of England trading into Hudson's Bay." It was then shortened to "The Hudson Bay Trading Company" And then furthermore to just "HBC, or Hudsons Bay Company.
