More Names in Hawaii – Ikaika, Kalani, Pilaku, Muliufi

A spotted a few Hawaiian names in yesterday’s Honolulu Star Bulletin:

Ikaika
Kalani
Kealoha		Nalea
Pikai
Pilaku

I also discovered that Honolulu’s half-Samoan, half-German mayor is named Muliufi Hannemann. The paper referred to him as “Mayor Mufi.”

  1. I used to teach elementary school in Waimanalo on the windward side of Oahu. Just thought you would find it interesting that one of the “in” names in 2004 was Abcde (prounounced ab-sa-dee).
