Lol my husband told me he liked that name. Its a beautiful name, but b/c of the movie I think we will stay away from that one, thank you.

If eveyone did that then we wouldn’t have such unique names, I’d love to have a name like that, she was an actual person who did great things.

Sorry, it’s Savannah, I didn’t realize you were Cherokee Indian, I just searched up native American names... I hope you don’t mind!!!

I’m Cherokee too, but there are few cherokee names that I like. I would suggest having some nature names. Maybe names to do with water since water is meaningful to Cherokees? River for a boy and Coral, Ivy, or Willow could work for girls.

Thank you to all the comments. You are helping so much! @Reggie, you couldn’t be more right. Makes us reconsider the name. @ Savannah, oh its fine! Don’t apologize, we love Tehya and Onida for a girl. Beautiful! @eigth poster, my mother actually suggested Creek for a boy. Willow is nice.
