Your Name in Hawaiian?

[BiggieN]

i was watching search party ealier and one of the things they had to do was find out hwat their name was in hawaiian. hw do i find that out? they asked some "native" hawaiians nad they said the names of the top of their head. were they making stuff up or what?

 

[Bling Bling]

once a receptionist at a Mariott in SC thought i was Hawaiian because i looked like her cousin....

I think it's more like Indian names:

stinky kawa
'he who runs with flatulence'

???

There is a site that translates names for you. I think I have a link at work. Maybe tomorrow I will bestow this information

 

[BiggieN]

thank you but is there a logical way of doing it...like letter swaps.

 

[IBhacknU]

but there are only 13 letters in the Hawaiian alphabet.

thinking about it, you are right BiggieN. I will get you some answers tomorrow

thanks JenniZ

you'd think with a last name of 'Johnson' there would be a common Hawaiian for it. NOPE!

nothing for my first name either.

Mahina Kukuna=Moon beam

But Haole Bugga was what I was called by my Hawaiian friends. It's what all whitish boys get called.

apparantly Seth=KaMeaHookohoia

That is like a Klingon to English translation or something.

Let's see 4 letters to 14? Agh, I would hate to learn to spell that in kindergarten.

Thanks Sweetrobin, it is much more interesting than my name in English!

I was always kind of pissed that my sisters got cool names (Maria, Valerie) and I got.... Susan. (no offense to the other Susans around here, tho'.)

Maybe I'll use my Hawaiian name from now own....

 

[thebestMAX]

ISLA-

It is now all over between us. Susan was my ex wifes name and I could never tolerate THAT again.

 

[Isla]

Just call me Kukana, my big MeaNui...
