I'll rename my son as soon as I can then! :-) And by the way, pretty cool to be related to Sitting Bull. And all the best to you too.

@gummihjerne Hoka Hey a comedian among us, for a moment there I felt my ancestors very far removed were only talking of visions of falling soldiers...maybe you are onto something! "you pamper the child". my father is a far removed relative of Sitting Bull and there are many of us, bled out sadly, but seriously I hope you name your children something beautiful and easy to tease, maybe you will become famous as well! Best to you~

I'm glad on the behalf of Sitting Bull his parents didn't put a "h" in his name. He would have appeared much less impressive...

Native Americans actually encountered 5 species of horse when they arrived in the Americas around 17,000 years ago. They made each extinct through hunting. The horse as a species actually evolved in North America and migrated to Asia and then Europe.
