Louisa was born about 1886.
Her Hočąk name was given in the censuses as KeeKaRaSinchKah, which is for Kikárasįčka, "Shakes Herself Free", which is from kisįč, "to shake off"; -kara-, an infix meaning "one's own"; and -ka, a definite article suffix used in personal names. This is an attested Wolf Clan name that makes reference to how canines shake water off themselves.
