Although the name Sioux has negative connotations to some, your little one will surely turn that around with their bright and beautiful personality. Of Native American origin and typically feminine, Sioux means “little snakes.” Sioux is the name of a Native American tribe that comes from a spiteful nickname given to them by their lifetime foe, the Ojibwe tribe. Historically, snakes and serpents have been used as symbols of fertility, rebirth, healing, and transformation. They have also been seen to represent a creative life force, symbolizing how your sweet little Sioux will be a force to be reckoned with. As a variant of Sue from the Hebrew Susanna, Sioux can also be said to mean "lily," "rose," or "lotus," adding a bright floral touch.
