During the Northern Cherokee Nation's tribal council meeting on November 8, Chief Grey Elk (pictured at right) bestowed Native American names on four citizens -- Jane Hicks, Ginny Long, Rita Bow, and Tony Easter.  Jane was given the name "Buffalo Sister"; Ginny was named "Hummingbird"; Rita as "Gentle Rain"; and Tony was named  "Running Wolf".   
"This is an important ceremony for these four citizens," stated Chief Grey Elk.  "I'm pleased that we could celebrate National Native American Month with a special naming ceremony for these citizens."
