Dakota is a given name derived from the name of two states in the United States : North Dakota or South Dakota , or from the name of an indigenous Native American tribe. The name is translated to mean "friend", "friendly" or "allies" in the Yankton-Yanktonai and Santee dialects of the Lakota Sioux language.
Dakota is in use for both girls and boys. It was the 203rd most popular name for American boys in 2007, having ranked in the top 100 most popular names from 1995 to 2000. It first appeared among the top 1,000 most popular names for boys in the United States in 1985. It was the 239th most popular name for American girls in 2007. It has ranked among the top 400 names for American girls since 1991. The name has been in occasional use for both sexes in the United States since at least the 1940s.
Dakota was a brand of cigarettes introduced by R.J. Reynolds Tobacco (RJR) in 1990. Their marketing was targeted towards young blue-collar "virile females", in an attempt to displace the Marlboro brand without diluting Reynolds' dominant Camel brand's appeal to males. After test-marketing in Houston, Tucson , Phoenix, and Nashville didn't yield the desired results, the brand was withdrawn.
