Nimkee~Little Thunder~
Bennett-Chadlen Roy
Many have asked, What does "Nimkee" mean?
http://my-baby-is-an-angel.blogspot.com/2008/03/bennett-came-home-today.html
Here is an exert from the above link. {Click the link to read more}
My sister helped me bathe Bennett in the cedar bath....he was rubbed down with washcloths dipped in the water. One of the women smudged Bennett with his very own eagle feather to cleanse him..... there was drumming and singing also.....it was very moving and spiritual.
They had offered tobacco earlier in the morning and prayed to hear from the Spirits for a name to give to Bennett.....his native 'Spirit' name.
Their prayers were answered, and Bennett was given the name "NIMKEE"....which means "LITTLE THUNDER".
From now on, when I hear the thunder......I am to know that it is my NIMKEE letting me know he is near. Coincidently....I have always loved storms.....especially the rumbling of thunder in the distance. I now look forward to many.
