Cheyenne, of Native American origin, is an enchanting and distinctive given name. Derived from the Lenape word 'Shah-ne,' it translates to 'large plain' or 'big open plain.' This name carries a sense of vastness, freedom, and natural beauty. Historically significant, Cheyenne is associated with the Cheyenne people, a Native American tribe known for their horsemanship and warrior traditions. The name gained wider recognition in the late 19th century through popular culture, such as the Cheyenne Indians, a Wild West show troupe. Today, it stands as a unique choice for parents seeking an uncommon yet meaningful name for their child.
