The name by which we call ourselves is Lenape [pronounced as if spelled lun-NAH-pay], and this name means something like The People. It is common for many groups of people around the world to use a name that has a similar translation. We do not know how long that name has been in use, but related tribes use similar words, so we think it has been in use for many hundreds of years. Back to Top Why did the Lenape people accept the name Delaware? It has long been known that the name applied to the Native people who lived along the Delaware River was taken from the title of an Englishman, Lord de la Warr, whose name was Sir Thomas West. He was appointed governor of the English colony at Jamestown, Virginia in 1610. One of his followers, Captain Samuel Argall, once sailed into a majestic bay which he named de la Warr Bay in honor of the governor.

People have asked why the Lenape people seem to have no problem with accepting this foreign name for themselves. The reason is that the Lenape have their own story about the origin of the name Delaware. It is as follows: The Lenape story is that when the Europeans first arrived a whiteman kept trying to ask a Lenape what tribe he belonged to, and he told him Lenape. For some reason the whiteman had trouble saying the word properly, and would say Lenuhpee, Renahpay and other mispronunciations. Finally he said Lenape correctly, and the Lenape said, Nal në ndëluwèn! Nal në ndëluwèn! (That's what I said! That's what I said!). The whiteman heard the DULUWEN part and he said, Oh, you said Delaware! So you are a Dela
