[Opinions] Find Your Hawai'ian Name
(I don't think this is could be considered a game, but if it is, let me know and I'll move it.)http://www.alohafriendsluau.com/names.htmlI don't know if these names are necessarily legit, but what the heck. It was fun to browse through the list and look at all the great names. What is the Hawai'ian equivalent of your name (real or username)?Also, what would be the Hawai'ian equivalent of your favourite names? Would you consider using them? Also, are their any names from the list that you like?My name would be: Kakalina Kalala KapaneI like the sound of that, lol! Actually, I like the melodic ring all three names have to them. I don't think I'd necessarily use any of them except, maybe, Kalala because I enjoy saying it. :)Equivalents of my favourite combos:Girls:Keneke Lokemalie
Noma Lalika
Kaleka Lokamonuku (I would LOVE saying this everyday!)Boys:Kekela Penekiko (This is a great one!)
Keokolo KalawinaI like these a lot. They're like words to a really cool song with a quirky beat. However, I don't think I'd use them unless it was for a third middle name or something.

I have a keychain on my backpack that has my Hawaiian name (cool!). Both the keychain and this website agree that Tracy is Kalaki, which is cool. So my name is Kalaki Elikapeka. :DMy sister (Laura Noel) is Lala Noela, Mom (Christine) is Kilikina, and Dad (Frederick Peter) is Peleke Pika!Some of my favorite combos:
Ailika Iulia - Iris Julia
Lukinia Laule - Eugenia Laure (This is cool although Lukinia sounds like Lukemia!)
Kukanaha Kakaleki - Susannah Scarlett (Love this!)Keoni Pelikinanaka - John Ferdinand (Quite a mouthful, but really cool.)
Pukonu Kilikopela - Burton Christopher (This is probably my favorite.)
Pika Ioakime - Peter JoachimThanks for sharing, this is really fun!

I have pretty obscure taste in names, so I ended up constructing my own cod-Hawaiian versions based on names already there . . . I got these:I'd be Mewanawi Pilipa Kalala (Myfanwy Philippa Claire)Top combos right now would be:Io Ailina Elikapeka [Io Eirene Elisabeth]
Nimuwe Pilipa Kakaleki [Nimue Philippa Scarlett]
Nimi Okawia Kalake [Mneme Octavia Grace]
Alakiani Maliona Alika [Alcyone Marion Alys]Laikanake Nikolaka Lowana [Lysander Nicholas Rowan]
Kewelin Penekiko Kale [Severin Benedict Charles]
Maliuko Ekimunoko Luweline [Marius Edmund Llewellyn]
Akaila Kalikiana Alena [Aquila Christian Alan]I really like the look/sound of Alakiani, Akaila and Kewelin, but I doubt I'd ever have the guts to put one in an actual name.

My name: Mekana Mikala (Megan Michele) - My best friend went to Hawaii and brought me back a fake license plate with my Hawai'ian name on it, and it said Mekana and it, so that matches, at least. :D
SO: Kailolu Akoni (Taylor Anthony)Siblings: Alena Iokepa (Allan Joseph)
Palanakonu Akoni (Brandon Anthony)
Malia Io Maulena (Mary Jo Maureen)
Elika Ewana (Eric Evan)Favorite combos:Koleke Anakonia Malia (Colette Antonia Marie)
Pamila Kaloe (Pamela Chloe)Lowana Kepenekala Alena (Rowan Spencer Allan)
Peleke Keoni Walo (Frederick John Waldo)

DH: Adam Leonard = Akamu Leonaka
Possible Future DS: Arthur Stephen = Aka KepanoOverall, I''m not liking it, although I do prefer Linei to Renee. Although some of the names on the list that weren't Hawaiian were interesting.

Mine is: Tai - Kai and Anna - Ana.I find it strange given my favourite boys name is Kai. Only I pronounce the 2 names differently.
