My Native American Name

Finding my Native American name has been a journey in itself. While it may seem rediculous to many, silly to some, and unimportant to those who do not understand finding the right Native American Name for myself is vitally important to me. It tells who my soul is.

I have always had such a deep connection to animals as a whole knowing which one truly describes what my soul reveals has been very difficult.

I have had and all but became one with the spirit of my white wolf, but wolf did not feel right. I have had the similar connections with Dog, Cat, Birds (Cockateel, Finche, Parakeet, Chicken, Ducks, Geese, Peacock, Guineas, Doves[ white and grey ones]), Squirrels, Rabbit, Cow and Horse.

So which one discloses ME, my soul.

Every name I tried out just didn't feel right....Lone Wolf, Mother Wolf, Thunder Horse, Wolf Walking, Woodpecker (a pet name my dad had for me because of my red hair)...I tried out name, after name, after name.

How could I have missed it? It was right before me all the time-Whispering Dove.

That is my Native American Name--Whispering Dove.
