Teyet Ramar is not a name in any of the Siouan languages (and certainly not in the Lakota dialect). A "Doctor" Teyet Ramar claimed all kinds of things about himself, but his life is actually extremely vague and sketchy (as it would be if he were a fake).
He claimed to be a grandson of Sitting Bull - making him a Lakota; he claimed to have the "Indian name" White Feather and claimed to be a chief, all of which is very doubtful.
Teyet Ramar does not mean white feather or anything else in Lakota. It was likely his real name, while "White Feather" was a name he adopted without knowing its Lakota translation. Investigations among reservation Lakotas in South Dakota found nobody who knew of such a "chief". He has all the hallmarks of a fraudster and faker.

What does tribe Sioux mean?
The word Sioux has no meaning in any language - it is a shortened form of the Ojibwe term nadowe-is-iw-ug meaning a "small adder snake" or enemy. This could not be pronounced by French explorers, who only managed "is-iw" which they spelled as Sioux. The Ojibwe were long-term enemies of all the Sioux tribes, so it is not intended as a compliment.Sioux is not the name of a tribe but a large number of related tribes such as the Oglala, Brule, Hunkpapa, Yankton, Sisseton and many more.
