I agree with changing the name in this case... but that's me.
What native americans (all or part) think about it is what I had been wondering about, thus my being divided, as what I've read is that there are divisions on that.
I'm not sure though that every reference to ethnicity is unethical or immoral, as old fan of the fighting irish who has irish heritage; there are probably countless usages of ethnic names all over u.s. culture. Don't remember when that started at Notre Dame, but probably well within the time the irish here were heavily looked down on.
