A word of advice: do not continue allowing your father to speak on your behalf.

Change the name. A shred of decency could go a long way in the world today. And it’s much needed here.

This is highly inappropriate and beyond offensive. She has no right to blame a business this.

I choose to believe in the good, that we can affect positive change with education - when we know better, we do better! So please, do the right thing for Spunky women everywhere! #changethename

This is a poor choice for the name of the store. Only an idiot would use this name.

Very derogatory word for Native Women, educate yourself and as women show respect for other women. Listen to the Natives who are telling you how this makes them feel.

This is disgustingly willful ignorance on the owners part. They have been informed multiple times of the derogatory nature of the word s***w and Refuse to even try to accept the facts. It is constant “whatever I say is right, your facts are wrong” with these people. They do not deserve a business.

I can not express my outrage loud enough. This company name is beyond reprehensible. This use of native culture is offensive and outrageous. Stop using language and culture of a race subject to generations of genocide to market yourself. And take off the war bonnet. You didn't earn it, don't respect it and have your white entitled self educated. Don't ever think this could be acceptable.

This country has no tolerance for racism, anti female sentiment or hate. Keeping this name after being shown how it is

My biological father is in denial of my existence, he is a white man! He once told my beautiful T’Sliel-Waututh mother to “Sit in the corner like a good little Squaw!” This Spunky Squaw clothing store should not be permitted to use such a derogatory title for her boutique! Show some respect and consideration!

I am disgusted by this name and the fact that this uneducated woman does not understand why it shouldn't be used in any context.
