Even today, the names honor the long lost tribes and languages of North America.
For example, The State of IOWA is named after the local native American tribes of the Iwoas. KANSAS is named after the local tribe of Kaw, another native American tribe.
Some other names pay tribute to what others called their home. For example the Sioux tribe used to call their home Dakota, which means friends in their language. Today, the State is called Dakota.
