Meaning & History

Roughly translates to: “as the sun breaks through the clouds" or "over the horizon.” This name became notable in 2015 when a mother in the Northwest Territories of Canada was forced to change the glottal stop in her daughter's name to a hyphen because the government could only use the Roman alphabet. This name is a cognate to the Slavey (Dehcho/Dene Tha') name Sakaeʔah.
