Message: Doesn't "Kalani" mean beautiful?

Kalani means 'chiefly one'. Nani is beauty or beautiful.
I have a dog named Popoki (means cat) and a cat named Ilio (means dog). Yeah, I know.....but consider my screenname.

How about Lani? (pronounced lah-nee) I have no idea what it means, but I know it's Hawaiian. I named my dog Lani.

I have gotten some great suggestions. How do you pronounce Popoki?

Thanks

Pualani? Mele Kalikimaka!

Roy,
"Kona" reminds of a delightful pair of Burmeses I met long ago. Dark brown, sleek and full of mischief, one was "Mocha" and the other was "Java".

Thanks Cruisin Tigger for the Kauai Animal shelter web site for Hwaiian names for pets. There were some great suggestions there.

Once heard of a siamese cat named Poi.

Malia or Keala?

We have two girls in our town with these names.

Ma - lie - a
Kee - all - a

Katsu ;)

dovima, our Burmese's name was Nabob!

My two cats are named:

Shaka (Hang loose)
Mele (short for Melekalekemaka (sp?)-
Merry Christmas)

Are you for real?? This is a travel board. Go clutter up some other space.

I was going to pass on this one, but after reading Jacqueline's contribution I thought I would keep this thread going.

How about Pila?
It means Bill I think. Good luck.

From some of these posters unpleasant answers on various threads, I can only think that the holiday stress is building up and they need to let it out somewhere, why not on unsuspecting Fodorites?
So we should give them a break until after the holidays, then they will have to go back to being polite :D

I had a new name for the baby, <i>Lani</i> which means Sky :)
did anyone already suggest that? sorry if so.

Burmese cats? Names that Pumpy can't spell? Jackie is right - let this one die !! Please !!
