Behind the Name: Comments for the name Tenskwatawa

Comments for TENSKWATAWA:

This screams "Native American" too much for it to be a name today, in my opinion. And it's kinda hard to pronounce at first glance.

They didn't teach us his name when we learned about it. We just learned "Tecumseh and the Prophet." Guess they don't think very highly of seventh-graders anymore.

It's too complicated for my taste.

I do like it, for a girl anyway. Pronounced ten-SKOO-woh-too-wah. Tennie would be a good nickname for it.
