It is an American term from the late 1700's and is believed to be called that because it was first noted in places where American Indians were. It is the warm weather after the first frost and in Britain it is also called All-Hallows. In the religious sect here in America it was also known as St, Lukes Day.It has no derogatory meaning as it was probably the Indians who first explained it to them.
