Hiawatha was the name of a real Mohawk chief in the late 17th century. The character in Longfellow's poem of the same name is completely fictional.

Hiawatha is a Native American name. It is also the title character of a poem written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow as a story of a boy in twenty-two chapters.

Do you mean Hiawatha? I believe that's the name of a Native American woman.

Hiawatha
The name is native American but Longfellow's excruciatingly dull poem describes a fictitious character.
