How did the ojibwe come?
The Ojibwe tribe or people are one of the group of Anishnabe peoples. The name for these same people in the US is Chippewa. According to Seven Fires Prophecies, they originated on the Eastern Coast of the US among the Abenaki People living there. The Abenaki speak a variety of the Algonquian Language as do all Anishnabe peoples. At the urging of the first prophecy, that a light skinned race would come and destroy the spirituality and very lives of those native peoples who remained along the eastern seaboard, the Anishnabe left en masse (in ten thousand canoes), moving west looking for the turtle shaped Island and the land where food grew on water (Wild rice, which they finally found in the Great Lakes). Along the way in this journey to the West, groups settled out at various places and became known as the Odawa, Potowotomy, Ojibway etc... Ojibway/Ojibwe was one of the groups that traveled furthest to the West looking for the "promised land" of the prophecy...
What is a Manitou or Manabozho?
Manabozho (or Nanabozho) is a trickster character known in many of the Anishnabe Native American tribes (such as Ojibwe, Potawatomi, Odawa, and Algonquin) from the Great Lakes area. He figures prominently in their creation story and is a culture hero. Manabozho had a human mother and a spirit father, and sometimes takes the shape of a rabbit. He is often portrayed as somewhat humorous, especially compared to the Algonquin trickster Wisakedajak, who caused a flood that encompassed the world. An interesting note is that the second part of his name, 'bozho' is used as a greeting in the Potawatomi language. Manitou is how the Anishnabe and Algonquin tribes refer to spirit. More specifically, spirits related to balance, nature and life. It's is comparable to the Chinese 'Chi'
Can you translate the name Amy to ojibway?
it depends on what your name means. a quick search on the internet revealed(http://www.meaning-of-names.com/search/) that the name Amy means "beloved" (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/beloved). so now we need to find the ojibway word for "beloved" which might not necessarily exist. i will check around, but i am not sure that i can find it. if you do your own research, remember that ojibway originally did not have written words. so you will probably find many spellings of the same word (example ojibway can also be spelled ojibwe). so finding the right pronounciation of that word might be hard. best is to ask an anishnabe person. though depending on which dialect of ojibway they speak, you might get variable results as well. here is a good place to start you off. http://www.native-languages.org/ojibwe.htm#language
Where do Algonquian live?
Many people are confused about the meanings of the words "Algonquin" and "Algonquian". The Algonquin tribe, also called Algonkin, Anishinaabe or Omàmiwininiwak, live today where they have always lived - along the Ottawa river valley between Quebec and Ontario in Canada. Many other tribes in the USA and Canada speak languages which are classed as Algonquian (meaning "like Algonquin"). They lived across most of North America; the Blackfoot, Arapaho and Cheyenne of the Great Plains all spoke Algonquian languages, so did the Powhatan, Secotan and Pamunkey of Virginia, the Delawares, the Shawnees, the Ojibwe/Chippewa, the Cree, The Montagnais, Abenaki, Penobscot and Mi'kmaq, the Menomini, Sauk and Fox and very many other tribes. So it is not possible to say that the Algonquian people lived in any one place - they were many tribes living across many thousands of square miles of territory.
