There may not be any listed to put into a category. There are some in use, like Inola (badger), but almost all native Americans have English, Spanish or French surnames. It's a matter of naming culture - in cultures with a large number of unique names in use, family names (even the family has a name) are not used for individuals; on the other hand if cultures where family/clan name is paramount, the number of individual names may diminish and even disappear (especially for women).
