Naming ceremony set!
I’m so excited. My naming ceremony will be Saturday, September 14, 9am. Let me know if you’re coming, please.
No, I won’t know my name ahead of time.
Our District 8 representative, Dave Carney, will perform the ceremony. We get to have a fire in my backyard! (It may have to be set inside a barbecue.)
Robert and Brooke will be my sponsors (explained in the prior post, significant people to me).
There may be two or more other people from the area who will receive their names at the same time. We will have some food following the ceremony.
And maybe, maybe, our drum group will play some songs on our beautiful new drum.
Cho gmowen. Keep repeating that for me. No raining.
Dave had sent me a questionnaire to help in coming up with a name. Work/volunteer experiences, good/bad fit; talents; siblings; favorite food, weather, color, animals, flowers, music, time of day; what two books on deserted island. Plus known Potawatomi family history and names (we know nothing...). I’ve never heard of someone walking away witha new name and saying, “Dang, that ain’t right.”
