We use the two words here in northern ontario. Northern Ojibway. Booshoo and aneen in Pikangikumeek, Poplar Hill Paungassi and Little Grand Rapids. I hear that in meeting within these communities.

[@averagesavage8367]

I believe in the importance of place names, the reverence and prestige of said places, as paying homage to our Mother Akii. Thusly, I always include Ogaakaaning indaa, in addition to Gaakaabikong indoojibaa, Red Lake is where I live, and Minneapolis is where I'm from, respectively.

My family has always said we have Ojibwe family. I have been doing research recently and I have to say that based on facial structure. I can definitely see it thank you for this. My dad has long since passed but its wild how much he looks like you

I've just started learning Ojibwe a few days ago through Pimsleur. Absolutely beautiful language. I was wondering if there was a way that a white person should better introduce him/herself with... (this will get poorly worded)... how you brought up the "where you're from, or tribe you're from" part you mentioned. Is it just shaw-gaw-naw-she? I'm sure my spelling there is way off. Sorry about that. I tried just making it phonetic. I actually know my family history going way back to Western Norway about 1,000 years almost.

My mother's maiden name was Troyer. John Troyer arrived in New England and then traveled to Ontario in the 17th century. He was Ahmish . I wonder if there is some connection there long ago?

[@christinaca4681]

I'm anishnabe. How can I get a native name ?

[@anton.treuer]

There are lots of people who give native names. Once you connect with someone you trust, you pass tobacco and follow their instructions. My email address is [e-mail]. Msg me there if you don’t know who to connect with in your community.

I don't know if it's my MacBook Pro, but the audio volume is close to inaudible. I've tried everything :(

I myself am starting work on a TH-cam channel on Native American history starting out in the Great Lakes region as it’s my home and I know mostly of Native culture here.
My goal is to give viewers a detailed and first hands look into our people’s culture as I see many people have done projects on First Nations but I feel they’re only broad stroking as to where I want to go in-depth as we see with Vikings, Romans, Celts, knights etc. I want to give all First Nations that same treatment. Just wondering if you would be interested in giving insight and being a reference? Chi miigwetch! Baamapii niiji!

[@marierosales7952]

How do we get an Objiwe name or an animal

[@anton.treuer]

I have a video on naming in Ojibwe culture too.

[@browngreen933]

Considering the very close relationship between the Ojibwe people and the early French, it would be surprising if "bon jour" isn't the origin. But Winneboujou is a very important cultural figure, so who knows.
