Huckleberry Finn

[Julie Long <jklong1@ACADEMICPLANET.COM>]

Dear List,

Learning the meaning behind the name "Mark Twain" reminded me that this
past semester one of our English teachers wanted her students to find
the meaning of the name "Huckleberry Finn".  We did our best but never
came up with an answer.  Does anyone out there know the answer to this
one?  Perhaps she knew that some name attached to the book had another
meaning and thought it was Huck rather than Mark Twain.

Thanks,
