Re: Is Dakota an Offensive name?
in reply to a message by Sierra
I don't feel it is my place to decide. However, the fact that you have some small fraction of native American ancestry (seems like every other American claims this..) doesn't make it not cultural appropriation of a marginalised and oppressed people. You make it sound like you want the name because it's honouring the tribe, although it doesn't seem like they will see it that way.
