What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

When I was searching for some hawaiian bling in honor of this thread I came across this. Sooo... what's your hawaiian name??

Mine is Kini :)

Oh, and another thing, if it can't find your name, try this site to search for a better translation... if you feel like scrolling through lots of names, that is.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

"elina"


that sounds like a pretty name :)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

"Keleko" :)

Perhaps this should be in the Chit-Chat forum, though? ;)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Maheli

Meh - it's ok. I like my original name better though...(Maher)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Mine's Mikala, which sounds really pretty, but to be perfectly honest, I'd much rather be called Michizelle. :cool:

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Palakale

Sounds weird

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

yes you are right.... this may sound stupid, but how can i move this thread to chit-chat? or does a moderator have to do it?

to keep on topic, i found my middle name: Elizabeth --> Elikapeka

Kini Elikapeka ... sounds kindof wierd

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

I am actually 1/4 Hawaiian with my grandmaw being from the island of Molokai.


Anyways, my Hawaiian name is Kawika :]

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Heiki. Hmmm... not much better than what I have... but at least people wouldn't have reason to say "Heidi Heidi Ho" to me anymore...

Heidi... er... Heiki

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

"Hawaiian bling" ...thats possibly the funniest thing i've heard all week....


Mine is Aalona

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Dave Lavery? :ahh:

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

My first name is Kaile

My middle name is hawai'ian to begin with, so no translation is needed (unless you want to know what it is in English): Kuokoa

My brother (Wetzel) will probably also post to this...cuase his middle name is also hawai'ian. Our parents gave us hawai'ian middle names because we were both born in Honolulu.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

My real first name of "Jason" translates to "Lakona", while "Jay" translates to "Kei".

Thanks Jaine, now I have something to replace (temporarily) "Teams' MacGyver" with. :)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Lika Lina :)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

thats a good idea ... think i will put mine in my custom user title too... :)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Katie Lynn >> Keke Lina

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

I think we should add an element of competition to this.... who has the most amount of letters in their Hawaiian first name?

So far the longest is 8 letters, and that goes to Brad Cahn ---> Palakale

mine has only 4 ... :(

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Kristin Jeanne --> Kilikikina Kini (that's a lot of K's!!! :ahh: )

10 letters!! I'm winning! :D

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Bridgette Rose - Palikekeke Loke

my name is 10 letters too!

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

My name's Kimi Li [English: Jamie Lee] :cool:
I'm nowhere near qualifying for the contest, but I DO like my name.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Koli-meh not a big fan-i think ill stick with my long other list of names.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Mine is also "Mikala!" Now i feel pretty too! :ahh:

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

courtney = Kolekena

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

hrmn. Mine came up 'JVN'. ?!

Alright, alright, just kidding. I'm really Amanaka Malia.
Actually, when I was a little kid, my grandpa told me my Hawaiian name was Adnama. Took me a long time to figure out that was my name backwards. :)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Bradley Cahn so thats 11 letters

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Kyle translates to Kaila, sounds a bit girlish to me...

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Were counting the letters in your hawaiian first name, silly! :)

so far it's Kilikikina Kini and Palikekeke Loke in the lead with 10 letters.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

I found Kilikina Loke -> Kristina Rose (they didn't have my middle name so I used my confirmation name, which I do use as a second middle name)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

oh sorry, i wasn't paying attention

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Mine's pretty! It's Koli Leikela =D I might change my SN to that eventually. =)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Kawika Pailona


... but still searching for good Hawaiian bling

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

mine wasnt there .. but the closest to it (Shyla) was translated into Kila

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

sir dave, i think you should make a name tag and wear it with your hawaiian shirt at the competition. "it would be so pimp." :)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Mikala is my Hawaiian name.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Iokepa

Ok, that's just wierd.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Hey, this is awesome....

First, my Hawaiian name is Akeli! That's cool!

Also, we have a full Tiki Lounge in our Living Room and Kitchen. We are always looking for things to add to it. We have an area with all of the "Lucky 7's" names, but I'm going to change it immediately.

Thanks for sharing the link!,
Akeli, Kelekolio, Leikela, Kale, Monika, Keoni, Kiliki, and Kaniela
:)

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Mine's either loe, Koe, or lokepa

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

I did more research, and found out that it stands for "Macadamia Shovedupnose" or something similar...

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

:sigh:

Here's a shocker. My first and last names are both.... Not available..

Ooh.. My middle name.. whoop dee doo dah.

I am (Elgin) Kale (Clock).

edit: That's 14 letters.. Do I win now? :rolleyes:

AHAHAHHAHAHAHA :D

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Mikala Paulo [Dubreuil],
19 letters, I think I've got it :D

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

mine is Koukonei

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Well, the contest was originally supposed to be just your first name in hawaiian....
but since this seems to be confusing some people then we might as well change it to being your first and middle name...but lets exclude last names just in case people don't want to share their last names online. And for those who originally only posted your first names, feel free to add your middle names.

In that case, then it's still Kilikikina Kini and Palikekeke Loke in the lead with 14 letters.

oh wait i forgot one other....
dave lavery for the longest literal translation at 19 letters.... jk :D

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

First Middle huh?
I think I can win this:
Jeffrey Lawrence, translates to:
Iepelei Lauleneke
16 letters

I don't think my last name will translate to Hawaiian.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Heiki Ana Pokeli

Now, in English my name translates to "Noble Grace Of the Woods". In Hawaiian, it's more like "Falls from tree while gathering coconuts."

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

uhh.. noone with my name has been to hawaii? lol
cant find it.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Iokua Mei, not too different from my real name.

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

Alikia

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

alika

Re: What's Your Hawaiian Name?
 

O fun... Jillian Laura translates to Kila LaLa. sounds menacing, huh? I sound like I'm going to kill pink fuzzy things.

I think I prefer what my whole name (Jillian Laura Bejtlich) means: Joyful - Victorious - Beam of Light, much more to Kila LaLa. :D
