There are even some family histories for many of these names. An example is below of Boggs Cherokee. BOGGS, BOGS, BAUGS, BOGGAS, etc... A cherokee name. John Boggs was a trader among the Cherokee and he served as an emissary during border conflicts. Boggs informed Governor William Blunt in 1792 of the impending attack of the Creeks (with John Watts and a war party of cherokees) against the encroaching white settlements. "Bogs (sic) is a half breed, well known to many white people, and by all parties viewed as a man of veracity." See COVSP. vol 6 pp. 115-116 In 1793, John Boggs ran the ferry for the prominent Cherokee, Turtle-at-home, villiage chief at the Running Water Town. Boggs fell in love with his daughter, Tsi-yah-ney-naw. Perhaps due to them, the Boggs surname is now common in mainstream Americans who have the cherokee princess tradition. See Holmes, pp. 62-63.
