Does Crazy Horse have any parents?

Answer 1

Common sense must tell you that everyone has parents (it's a biological requirement . . .). Crazy Horse was at first named "Curly" as a child, his mother was Rattling Blanket Woman and his father was the great warrior Crazy Horse.

When Curly grew older his father gave the boy his own name, taking the name "Worm" instead - passing on a name like this was a great honour and a way of remembering warriors of the past. Even women might take the name of a famous warrior who had died.

In Lakota, the name is Tashunka Witko.
