New spider species named for Angelina Jolie, Bono

Rafterman11, the Washington Redskins are named for a terrorist group. They were originally the Boston Redskins, and that team was named for the colonials who dressed as Indians and threw tea into Boston Harbor during the Boston Tea Party.

There are many other misuses of Indian words though, like the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers were originally from Milwaukee and four of the Great Lakes are Indian words, Michigan, Erie, Ontario, and Huron.
