Why were Beothuks called "Red Indians?" Was their skin red?
It wasn't really red, but the Beothuks painted their bodies and clothing with red ochre paint. Many Indians used red ochre as an insect repellant, but the Beothuks considered red a sacred color and wore it all year long. Neighboring tribes called them the Red People, and the Europeans called them Red Indians.

Laughing Water is a fantastic name, but it's been done before.
It's a lovely idea.
I would be Calm Loving Mumma.
