Usage: Native American
Meanings: Derived from the Algonquian pocahdntesu (she is playful). The name was borne by the daughter (1595?-1617) of Powhatan. After Captain John Smith of Jamestown was captured and sentenced to death, Pocahontas successfully argued for his release. Five years later, she was taken hostage by the Jamestown settlers, who held her for ransom. She enjoyed Jamestown and married John Rolfe, with whom she had one son. Pocahontas died four years later in England due to a shipboard smallpox epidemic. It was because of her marriage that her father kept the peace between his tribe and the white colonists for as long as he lived. (PO-KAH-HON-TAS)
