HANOHANO CHILDREN, THEIR FAMILY NAMES
Hidden Alii, No. 17
The 17 living children of Stella Kaliookalani Piianaia and her husband Peter J.S. Hanohano are a reminder that the Hawaiian race is not going to die.
Of particular interest are in the amily names given each of the Hanohano family accourding to the ancient system. Each name is "kapu" in the family and may be given only those in the family of the alii who previously bore it.
A child can not be named "for" and alii, Western style. The name must be a right or conferred by the alii.
The 17 Hanohano children are:
1- Albert Gordon Kalawai[a]nui Kaluhikai Kaho'alii. His name is that of the Hidden Alii in full.
2- Maria Lupua Kaimookalani. A name referring to a prophet who obtained his powers from the sacred lizard.
