Question American Indian Culture & History Information !
A little American Indian boy asked his father, the big chief and witch
doctor of the tribe, "Papa, why is it that we always have long names,
while the white men have shorter names like Bill, Tex or Sam?"

His father replied, "Look, son our names represent a symbol a sign, or a
poem for our culture not like the white men, who live all together and
repea t their names from generation to generation. Also, it is part of our
makeup that in spite of every thing, we survive.

For example, your sister's name is Small Romantic Moon Over The Lake,
because on night she was born, there was a beautiful moon reflected in the
lake.

Then there's your brother, Big White Horse of the Prairies, because he was
born on the day that the big white horse who gallops over the prairies
of the world appeared near our camp and is a symbol of our capacity to
live and the life force of our people. It's very simple and easy to
understand.
