Re: meaning of my name Cherokee name
Even though the site claims to translate, these seem more like transliterations than translations. I guess, they represent the traditional `corresponding' name among the Cherokees, using Cherokee phonetics, even if the name is ultimately borrowed. if you have Cherokee fonts on your computer, you should be able to see ᏑᏌ(Ꮒ/Ꮓ)/ᏑᏌᎠᎾ.

You are completely right about the transliterations. Egyptianpanda already wrote the true origin of the name. I concluded that Shoshannah might be interested in how to spell her name in Cherokee, which indeed is not a real translation.
