Yeah...When John Byrne originally used the term in Alpha Flight, I believe it was an accepted term (at least to the general public). As in the past, Eskimo was an accepted term for Inuit peoples...

Let's tell them!

It is a bit of a tongue-twister, isn't it? LOL. The Tsúùt'ínà is the real name for the tribe...The name Sarcee is the name given to them by others.

I believe Mr Byrne had said he got the name from a former chief of the Sarcee. A search of certain sites in Alberta proves it's a Sarcee name (I'll PM you about it).

BTW: If anybody else...

it's a real Tsúùt'ínà(Sarcee) family name...John Byrne chose it for that reason.

Her information about Puck being an original member of Alpha is wrong, though. Shah-min is acceptable, but also Shay-min/Shayman (I've heard the word pronounced this way by British folks).
