Known Native American Peak Names?

[LifeIsGood]

I half-seriously suggest that we annoy fellow hikers on 14’er summits, by telling them that they are not using the correct name for the mountain:

Pikes Peak was known as “Ookoomeneta” by the Cheyenne Tribe, which translates to “Bald Peak”

Longs Peak was known as “Esevoneve” by the Cheyenne Tribe, which translates to “Buffalo Lodge”

James Peak (13’er) was known as “Hooxei hookute” by the Arapaho Tribe, which translates to “Wolf’s Canine”

Blanca Peak was known as “Sisnaajini” by the Navajo Tribe, which translates to “Wears a Black Sash”

Wilson Peak was known as “Shandoka” by the Ute Tribe, which translates to “Storm Maker”

James Peak (13’er) was known as “Hooxei hookute” by the Arapaho Tribe, which translates to “Wolf’s Canine”

I've never seen a peak that looks less like a wolf's canine than James

Steep Mountain (RMNP) has the best native name.
