"Flying Chicken"

Yesterday we began our studies of Native Americans. The students were given the task of coming up with an "Indian" name for themselves. The name needed to have a verb and a Noun, preferably something from nature. I was cracking up most of the afternoon at some of their ideas...my sly little trouble maker=Sneaking Fox, my non-stop chatty Cathy=Speaking Rain, but the one that had me rolling was...Flying Chicken. I can just picture some Indian Chief calling to his daughter, Flying Chicken.
