Re: Denali
in reply to a message by Eric
Denali is the Athabascan name for Mt. McKinley, meaning "the high one". Though it has been used for both boys and girls, my figures show that it is more common for girls. It is a modern "nature name" and this girl was undoubtedly name after the mountain, or after the national park that surrounds it:
