Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha

Nakoa Wolf is not that bad, it's the rest of the name that I find strange!

Is there some kind of competition nowadays among celebrities who can name their children the most ridicolous thing?. Sure, he'll ever be called that.

I know but she did it in honor of her father's hawiian (sp) haritage (sp)

Sorry but nothing beats Moon Unit Zappa.

It's kind of lame how 'celebrities' name their kids bizzare names simply for the attention. This name just seems like a deliberate attempt at saying "hey, look at me!! I'm still here, and I'm naming my kid crazy names!!".

You guys ever met any Hawaiians/Polynesians? A lot of them have names just like that. Her husband is Hawaiian isnt he? So is it not implausible that their child would get a Hawaiian name? Wolf is the only part of the name thats standing out as being a little strange to me.

Finally, someone talking some sense!

You're absolutely right, nearly every Hawaiian has a first or middle name that is Hawaiian, particularly if the surname is non-Hawaiian. Some families have a tradition of giving their children a "public" Hawaiian name, and/or a "private" Hawaiian name (usually known only by family).

If her son's father is Hawaiian, then that makes sense. I thought she was dating a white man, which in that case the name would be ridiculous...well maybe the Nakoa would be okay but the rest wouldn't make much sense.
