Freedom Names obviously. I remember being jealous as a 1st/2nd grader that I didn't have a cool last name like so many of my classmates.

Are those things like "Roaring Thunder" and "Silent Beaver" and stuff like that?

I assumed that was just something Native Americans in general did. I didn't know it was specific to Sioux.

Freedom Names, for heritage purposes.

They are less likely to wander around gift shops in Edinburgh looking for the Zapowski clan tartan.

Are American tourists just great, or the greatest thing?

My half-Sioux stepdaughters have a French surname and nothing cool like Runswithhamster.

Apparently, he's Pawnee, not Sioux, but I always thought Larry Echo Hawk had a cool name.

As for English surnames, I've always been fond of Makepeace.

I am not going to judge an entire cultures surnames.  Why is there no middle option?  I agree some of them are cool, but some are dumb.  Its the same with everything, some good, some bad.
