I’ve seen a pattern of problems with Hawaiian names in the database.

1, non-Hawaiian names listed as Hawaiian. I’ve already poste many a rant about this so I’m not going father. 😅

1. Inaccurate meanings. I’ve seen this a lot. For example, [name\_f]Ani[/name\_f] is listed as “beautiful”, when in fact, it means wave. Many Hawaiian words have alternate meanings & ‘beautiful’ isn’t even one of them!
