I am just curious about Nathan and Shoshana. These are distinctly =
Hebrew names (well, Nathan is an English-rendering of Natan). It seems =
odd that two native Americans would have Hebrew/Israeli (as in the case =
of Shoshana, which means 'rose' in Hebrew and is a commonly female =
Israeli name) names. Can you shed any light on this? Wendy Smith
