What is an "inian"? It sounds like you know a little about the states but just do know how to spell.

States named for indians? As far as I can see there are only 23

Ok here goes:

1. Alabama --May come from Choctaw meaning “thicket-clearers” or “vegetation-gatherers”

2. Arkansas-- From the Quapaw Indians

3. Connecticut-- From an Indian word (Quinnehtukqut) meaning “beside the long tidal river”

4. Illinois--Algonquin for “tribe of superior men”

5. Indiana-- Meaning “land of Indians”

6. Iowa-- Probably from an Indian word meaning “this is the place” or “the Beautiful Land”

7. Kansas--From a Sioux word meaning “people of the south wind”

8. Kentucky-- From an Iroquoian word “Ken-tah-ten” meaning “land of tomorrow”

9. Massachusetts-- From Massachusett tribe of Native Americans, meaning “at or about the great hill”

10. Michigan-- From Indian word “Michigana” meaning “great or large lake”

11. Minnesota--
From a Dakota Indian word meaning “sky-tinted water”

12 Mississippi--
From an Indian word meaning “Father of Waters”

13.Missouri Named after the Missouri Indian tribe. “Missouri” means “town of the large canoes.”

14. Nebraska-- From an Oto Indian word meaning “flat water”

15.North Dakota-- From the Sioux tribe, meaning “allies”

16. Ohio--From an Iroquoian word meaning “great river”

17. Oklahoma- (my state!) From two Choctaw Indian words meaning “red people”


18.

19.Tennessee-- Of Cherokee origin; the exact meaning is unknown

20.Texas-- From an Indian word meaning “friends”

21.Utah-- From the Ute tribe, meaning “people of the mountains”
