Some beliefs and traditions of the Nez Perce tribes included the belief that a child should not be named until he or she was about six or seven years old. The child would be named in a way that described something striking about his or her personality or appearance. Men often had names with strong animals in them while women had names with trees, plants, and other earth items.
