Are there any Hawaiian or beach related baby names that are easy to pronounce? Looking for boy and girl names.

My husband and I love the beach and are looking for baby names that reflect this. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Are there any Hawaiian or beach related baby names that are easy to pronounce? Looking for boy and girl names.
Hawaiian for a boy:


Kai - "sea, willow tree"


Kane - "tribute, warrior; the doubly-accomplished, golden; man, the eastern sky; beautiful"


Kale - "strong and manly"


Ekana - "strong"


Kana - "A Maui demigod who could take the form of a rope and stretch from Molokai to Hawaii."


Keoki - "Form of George"


Makani - "wind"





Hawaiian for a girl:


Alana - "fair, beautiful, offering"


Kalea - "bright"


Kalia - "beauty"


Lani - "sky, heaven"


Oliana - "oleander"


Halia - "rememberance of a loved one"


Kaloni - "the sky, chieftan"


Keona - "God's gracious gift"


Lilo - "generous one" - how could I not put this one on the list?


Maleah - "unique little girl, beautiful young woman"


Mei - "the month of may"


Mahina - "moon"


Hoku - "star"

I'd be more inclined to name a girl baby like that than a boy baby, chiefly because kids are ruthless and he'll get into a lot of fights because of the teasing he'll get.
Reply:I like the name Maya. Not sure if it's Hawaiian or not but it sounds like it could be. :-) Congrats on the little one!





Here are some others I found that are Hawaiian:








Girls: Halia, Ailani, Iolani,


Boys: Bane, Kai, Akamu








I also think just the name Ocean is cool for a boy or Oceana is pretty for a girl.
Reply:Beach - Sandy, Rocky





Hawaii - Danno
