About Hawaiian names
Hawaiian names flow from a language of just a handful of consonants and open vowels, which is why they sound like water — Leilani, Kai, Noelani. Traditionally a name was a serious gift, sometimes given by elders or received in dreams, and meanings lean on the natural world: sea, sky, flowers, heaven. Even short Hawaiian names tend to hold whole images.
Meaning and origin are editorial; U.S. popularity comes from Social Security Administration public files.
