Papoose
A papoose (from the Algonquian papoos, meaning "child") is an American English loanword whose present meaning is "a Native American child" (regardless of tribe) or, even more generally, any child, usually used as a term of endearment, often in the context of the child's mother. Usually it refers to a child strapped to a board used to carry it on the parent’s back.
Example:
Shamele Mackie, or Papoose is a rapper from Brooklyn, New York. He is of Liberian and Native American descent. He was given his name by his grandma Vivian because of his childhood resemblance to a Native American child.
A Papoose Board is a device commonly used to immobilize children for dental work, blood-drawing, and minor medical procedures. The child is placed on a flat board and wide fabric straps are wrapped around the upper body, middle body, and legs.
