The word Wabash is derived from the Miami word meaning “shining white” or “water over white stones.” (Waapaahšiki Siipiiwi) [1] Most preferred the idea of 'Indiana' which in turn was Latin for "land of the Indians"- but many concerned with the notion, at the Duval Confederate Convention, claimed there wasn't enough Indians in the territory anymore to be claimed as 'Land of the Indians'. Where the convention was being held also sat on the banks of the Wabash River, which had gained a sacred connotation to the Christian population, it was the only river to be used for baptism. The three founding leaders and the settlers at the convention agreed on the name of the 'Wabash Confederation'.

abstract
  • The word Wabash is derived from the Miami word meaning “shining white” or “water over white stones.” (Waapaahšiki Siipiiwi) [1] Most preferred the idea of 'Indiana' which in turn was Latin for "land of the Indians"- but many concerned with the notion, at the Duval Confederate Convention, claimed there wasn't enough Indians in the territory anymore to be claimed as 'Land of the Indians'. Where the convention was being held also sat on the banks of the Wabash River, which had gained a sacred connotation to the Christian population, it was the only river to be used for baptism. The three founding leaders and the settlers at the convention agreed on the name of the 'Wabash Confederation'. In the description of the Founding of a Nation by Jérémie Dubost the scene was preformed in this manner; Three men descended into the river, to be received by Christ himself. Aye, we indeed remember and miss thee Zion, But none shall weep on this day. Aye, Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight. Cahun, Malford and Glaisyer raised their hands, basked in the Wabash and proclaimed - "From Providence's grace, We do declare a nation for the people, where we may be free. To never be afraid of human power, We shall only fear God's judgement. For Wabash, her Banks and her rolling waters! Rather than live as slaves, We shall die free! — Jérémie Dubost, Founding of a Nation, August 1st, 1776
