Inuit names and Siberian names

Does anyone know if there exist any websites with Inuit names and their meanings(there are a few at the Kabalarians, but no meanings are given)?
I would also like to know if someone can give me examples of names used by Native Siberians? I know that most of the Siberian peoples today use Russian names, but I would like to learn about their original names!

Here's a couple of great sites for Inuit names with meanings:

Hope you get this info.

I was looking for Siberian names because my boyfriend and I are getting a Siberian Husky for our apartments. Thanks!

Hej Caprice,

On this site they used to have tons of Inuit names from Grønland but the name lists don't work for me right now... maybe they will be available later again??

They didn't have any meanings anyway :(
