About Dakota
Dakota comes from the language of the Dakota people, where it carries the meaning 'friend' or 'ally.' While many people recognise it through the American states of North and South Dakota, the name's origins lie in the Indigenous nation itself. Warm, familiar and widely established, Dakota has become a well-known gender-neutral name that combines cultural heritage with a relaxed contemporary style.
