We, here on this site, never cease to be amazed at the education we receive and the bits and pieces of information we pick up about people from all over the world. It's so nice to see you on this site Jennifer. And it was so nice of Sarah to research your name and come up with a nice puzzle.

Sarah probably already knows this, but I checked out the names of her cousins: Kamakana: the gift--a beautiful name to give a child; Pono: goodness or righteousness--I've heard that name used; Leilani: heavenly garland or heavenly flower--lei can be translated as a garland or a flower--I've heard of people named that, too. Kealohakai`akua: (I think I have the spelling right.) kealoha means the love, kai means sea or ocean, akua means god or God, when capitalized. I'm not sure how it would be translated, but perhaps "God's love of the sea." I've heard the name Kealoha or just Aloha used. I've also heard of people named Kai. I've not heard of people with akua as part of their name, but it could be in there somewhere. Hawaiians tend to have long names.

Norma is right,making friends from all over the world and learning things from each other is just one of the great things about webpbn,and we have Jan to thank for this. I've said it before and I'll say it again "thanks Jan".:)

I hadn't looked up the meaning of their names. I know they know what their names mean. And now that you mention it, I am sure it is Kealohakai'Akua with the capitalized "A". And I did find one more: Makanamaioke'Akua. Thank you for the information!
