I'd like to know the correct spelling, is it Pottawatomie, Pottawattomie or Potawatomie. I've seen it all three ways. Or are these three different clans or tribes or whatever? Used to be the county in Oklahoma was abbreviated as Pott County, so now is it Pot County? Confusion reigns. (And FR spell checks doesn't like any of them)

Please see post #65. By the way, I don't think non-Indians are supposed to get spellings and pronunciations correct. In fact, it's better we don't, otherwise we are designated members of the Wannabe Nation... or Clan. *Grin*
