Absolutely. I wish the U would just drop the Ute part of their name altogether.

This. Out of respect for Ute tribe I intentionally use "yewt" to describe the U.

Different spellings is how we differentiate between Native Americans and the UU.

We never refer to the Utes as “Yewts”. That would indeed be disrespectful. We only refer to Yewts as “Yewts”.
