I recently took some heat about my resistance to using the name Sasquatch because I spell it wrong all the time, word checker be dammed. So I thought I’d turn a negative into a positive and try to collect all the names for Bigfoot from around the world. These were collected from numerous and various websites all over the interwebs. So to give credit, I stand on the shoulder of giants. But I wanted to get one solid master list going that I will continue to update.
So please, I implore you, if I missed one or got it wrong please leave a comment and I’ll fix it right up.
