Or it might just be "Kelly" spelled with Hawaiian vowels and consonants.





If you're still not satisfied and want to go deeper, since the "ke" is an article meaning "the", "li" means:


l墨





1. nvi. Chills; to have chills; to tremble with cold; shuddery feeling of horror. Cf. hulil墨. L墨 ka 驶ili, l墨 ka 驶i驶o, to have goose flesh. Pi驶i ka l墨, to get chills.





2. nvt. Lace, as of shoes; to lace or tie. Cf. l墨 k膩liki, l墨 k膩ma驶a. E l墨 mai i ke k膩ma驶a o La驶a-kea, tie La驶a-kea's shoes.
