Origin: Native American
Meaning: Little wolf
An Indigenous name from North America, Tamaska is a name that leaves a lasting impression. It means “little wolf,” which are often believed to be another way of recognizing a fox. These little rascals appear frequently in Native folklore, and often next to Coyote. With their gorgeous red and orange coats, foxes are also believed to be connected to fire and the sun. And, much like fire, these tricksters have a mind of their own. If you're Native heritage runs deep and you also just know baby will be the most independent and clever of them all, then the name Tamaska couldn't be more fitting.
