Reply:I read the 10 answers posted before posting my own ... some of them are Not Hawaiian names. Just because they sound Hawaiian doesn't make them Hawaiian. Remember, Tahitian, Samoan and other South Pacific Islander words will be similar.
Hawaiian Alphabet consists only of 12 letters - A, E, I, O, U, H, K, L, M, N, P, W.
ah
eh
ee
oh
oo
hay
kay
lah
moo
noo
pee
vay (way) - depends on who you learned your pronunciation from. Pre-missionary Hawaiians used the "way" pronunciation, post-missionary Hawaiians used the "vay" pronunciation ... for some reason the missionaries didn't like the W sound and preferred the V sound.
these are all literal translations -
Leilani - (lay-lah-nee) heavenly love (lei means love or beloved, lani means heavens or heavenly
Kanani - (kuh-nah-nee) the beauty
Nalani - (nah-lah-nee) the heavens or heavenly one
Kalei - (kuh-lay) the love or the beloved
Malia - (muh-lee-uh) loosely used form of Marie or Maria; could be used as Memory as it also means to recall or recollect.
Malie - (muh-lee-ay) calm, quiet, serene
Maile - (my-lee) native twining shrub, very fragrant and used in many celebrations
Lehua - (lay-hoo-uh) flower of the Ohia tree
Anela - (uh-nell-uh) means angel
Pua - (poo-uh) could mean flower or child
Kamalei - (kah-mah-lay) beloved child
Kamalani - (kah-mah-lah-nee) heavenly child
Kamalii - (kah-mah-lee-ee) small or little child
Pualii - (poo-uh-lee-ee) same meaning as Kamalii
Pualani - (poo-uh-lah-nee) same meaning as Kamalani
Puanani - (poo-uh-nah-nee) beautiful child
Pualei - (poo-uh-lay) same meaning as Kamalei
Lilo - (lee-loh) to become, to turn into, to relinquish, to overcome
Liho - (lee-hoh) choice, precious
Kuuipo - (koo-oo-ee-poh) sweetheart
Hope those are enough to get you started.
Congratulations
