The Indian name Cheyenne is actually the name of a Native American People. These people can now been found in Montana and Okalahoma. The word Cheyenne is believed to be of Siouan origin. The more traditional Cheyennes prefer to be called the "Tsistsistas". There are various takes on what the word Cheyenne actually means.

Some believe that the word Cheyenne comes from the French word "chien" for dog. The Cheyenne originally lacked horses and used dogs instead as beasts of burden and this could have been a reason. Other theories suggest that it could have been derived from a Sioux word for "alien" or "red". It is believed that the most plausible explanation is that the word comes from the French to English and was a term used by the Dakota to refer to the Cheyenne. The term meant "little Cree" or correctly "little shahi".

Cheyenne in English is usually referred to as a boy or a girl's name. It is a Native American Indian origin. It derives its name from the fiercest opponents of European inhabitants in the West. The four different variants of this name are Chayan, Chayann, Shayan and Shayanne. Some sources claim that this word is derived from the French word "chien," which mean 'dog'. However, most sources claim that this particular word from a Sioux word, which means 'red' or 'alien'.

Cheyenne is also the capita city of Wyoming. It is also a language that is widely spoken in south-eastern Montana on the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation, and in central Oklahoma.
