I love Hawaiian names. I like Keona, Kiana and Kaleia.

I didn't know Ambrosia was a name. I seem to remember a jello salad served at my family reunion called Ambrosia.

I like Lilo, but I would never use it due to the movie and Linsday Lohan's nickname.

I love the name Ambrosia, though I've yet to meet a kid named that, lol.

And Lilo will always be an adorable name, though I'm not sure I'd ever use it.

I LOVE Kiana.


If you pronounce Kaleia like Kah-lee-a i love it, :)

for awhile, I really love Lahela. it's apparently the Hawaiian form of Rachel.

I have a friend named Ambrosia. Although she is Italian, not Hawaiian, I guess I just assumed that is where it is from. :P

I'm pretty sure Ambrosia is a Greek name.

My favorite Hawaiian name though is Leilani.

I'm pretty sure Ambrosia is a Greek name.

It is. Well, just a word, really, for food of the gods. Some desserts and dessert drinks around the world are also called ambrosia now.

I like Kiana.

I also like Leilani, but that's not on your list.

Is Kaili pronounced like Kaylee or Kylie?

Since when is Ambrosia a Hawaiian name? There are no S's in the Hawaiian alphabet.

[icecreamempress.livejournal.com]

It's pronounced "Kah-IH-lee" in Hawai'ian.

I actually know a girl called Kiona (spelled this way).
I'm not really a fan of Hawaiian names, but Lilo is very cute.
