Native + Indigenous Naming Practices was a collaborative event created to be held on March 13th during Multi-Cultural Heritage Month to highlight the cultural significance behind different naming rituals and break down existing stereotypes. This discussion-based event tackled two common naming practices which include names given at birth and one's given upon request.

Due to COVID-19, all UMD sanctioned events were canceled. Despite the circumstances, I still wanted to make the PowerPoint accessible to anyone interested in learning about the two most common naming practices amongst North American native communities.
