There are sketchy references of Misha as a Native American name throughout the Web. As far as I could find, a "Misha-nnock" (tree scratcher) is a squirrel in one dialect. I found an other reference to "Misha Sapokni", meaning "beyond age". A transcendental squirrel perhaps? Who knows.
In Russia, Misha is a common nickname for Michael.
