Lanai and Nalu

I have a bunch of favorites: Leilani, Noelani, Lanimele, Alealani, Lilinoe, Ualani, Mâhealani (this one is really cool; I love the ancient origins), Manaoio, etc.

A lot of Hawaiian names just have beautiful meanings.

Hawaiian names have actually been on my mind since binge-watching the series of Hawaii Five-0 (The 2010 remake :D) I like a good list of these particular names. I think alot of them sound quite nice and beautifully exotic.

Alani
Lani
Leilani
Nalani
Malia (From the series as well)

Moana

I love Leilani, and it's crossed over into non-Hawaiian use that I wouldn't feel like I was ripping off Hawaiian culture if I used it, unlike most other Hawaiian names.

Leilani I like

I like Leilani and Kiana.

Idk any.

My fav's are Kai, Keanu, Koa & Noa and
Kailani, Kalea, Leilani, Nalani & Noelani.

I like the names Leilani, Kiana, Lorelei, Naia, and Moana. They’re all pretty cool.
