Ioway Creek: Decades before name change, a Native teen led the cause in Ames

Ames Tribune Editor s note: This story has been updated to remove an incorrect description of the gender make-up of the Ames City Council in 1994; to reflect the lack of clarity on whether Stubben had the chance to speak before that council; and to clarify that a packet of paperwork on the name change was required by a federal governmental organization. Nearly three decades ago, 16-year-old Fawn Stubben prepared to stand before the Ames City Council to talk about what she said was the real meaning behind a local creek s name: Female genitalia. But that conversation never happened.  Stubben, whose mother is from the Turtle Mountain Chippewa tribe and father is from the Ponca tribe, wanted to explain why the name of Ames Squaw Creek needed to change.
