Stars, winds and ancestors for canoes and ships
Browse 1,000 names for voyaging canoes, outriggers, boats and ships in Hawaiian, Māori, Samoan, Tongan and Tahitian, such as Hōkūpaʻa, Makani, Toroa and Tai Timu. Each one is a recorded vessel, a star, a wind, a sea creature, a navigator, an island or a blessing.
About Polynesian ship names
Across Polynesia a vessel is named much as a person is: for a star to steer by, a wind, a sea bird, an ancestor or a homeland. Hōkūleʻa, the Hawaiian voyaging canoe launched in 1975, carries the Hawaiian name of Arcturus, the star that passes directly over Hawaiʻi, and her sister canoe Hikianalia is named for Spica. Te Aurere, Haunui, Marumaru Atua, Faʻafaite and Gaualofa belong to the same modern voyaging revival.
The 1,000 names here come in about a dozen kinds: recorded canoes and ships, wayfinding stars, winds and tides, sea birds and fish, navigators and sea deities, islands and channels, virtues and blessings, paddling club names, simple two-word names and a few English glosses. Apart from the English glosses, each name stays inside one Polynesian language, mostly Hawaiian or Māori, and is written with ʻokina and macrons.
A small share, including Tainui, Te Arawa, Mātaatua, Tākitimu and Aotea, are the ancestral canoes that Māori iwi trace their descent from. They are listed because the tradition starts with them, and they are identities rather than casual boat names. The list was drafted from recorded names and everyday vocabulary, so confirm the spelling and meaning with a dictionary or a speaker before you paint a name on a hull.
How to choose Polynesian ship names
- Keep the ʻokina and the macrons. In Hawaiian, koa is a warrior or the koa tree and koʻa is coral, so a dropped mark can change the word.
- Say the name aloud the way you would hail it over a radio or across a beach. Short names such as Makani, Toroa and Nalu carry well.
- Leave the ancestral canoes, such as Tainui or Te Arawa, to the people who descend from them unless you have that connection and their blessing.
- For a fleet or a paddling club, pick one theme in one language so the boats read as a set: the stars Hōkūpaʻa, Nāhiku and Keoe, for example.
- Look the word up in a dictionary of its own language before you commit. Related words can differ in meaning from one island group to the next.
Frequently asked questions
Which of these names belong to real vessels?
A share of the list is recorded vessels. Hōkūleʻa, Hawaiʻiloa, Hikianalia and Makaliʻi are Hawaiian voyaging canoes, Te Aurere and Haunui sail from Aotearoa, Te Kaha and Te Mana are frigates of the Royal New Zealand Navy, and Kaitaki and Kaiārahi are Cook Strait ferries. Hui Nalu, Healani, Hui Lanakila and Kai ʻŌpua are long-standing Hawaiian canoe clubs, and Molokaʻi Hoe and Nā Wāhine o ke Kai are races, so treat those as taken. The rest are stars, winds, creatures, places and words in the same tradition, with no claim that a vessel carries them.
What languages are the names in?
Most are Hawaiian or Māori, with Samoan, Tongan, Tahitian and Cook Islands Māori beside them and a few English forms such as Star of Gladness and Long White Cloud. Each name stays within one language. The languages are closely related, which is why one god's name appears as Tangaroa, Tagaloa, Tangaloa, Taʻaroa and Kanaloa: a god of the sea in Aotearoa and Hawaiʻi, a creator in Samoa, Tonga and Tahiti.
Can I give my boat the name of an ancestral canoe?
Names such as Tainui, Te Arawa, Mātaatua and Kurahaupō are the canoes that iwi descend from, so they are tribal identities first. So are Tokomaru, Horouta, Māmari, Ngātokimatawhaorua, Matawhaorua, Māhuhu-ki-te-rangi, Nukutere, Āraiteuru, Uruaokapuarangi, Moekākara, Pangatoru, Ōtūrereao, Ruakaramea, Tinana, Te Wakatūwhenua and Tairea, and the war canoes Te Toki a Tāpiri, Taheretikitiki and Te Winika belong to their own people in the same way. Unless you belong to those people or have their blessing, a star, a wind or a bird is the better choice. Kōpū, Hau Moana and Kuaka come from the same tradition without claiming anyone's ancestry.
What works for a racing outrigger or a club canoe?
Paddling clubs favor short names that a crew can shout. Imua means forward and Lanakila means victory in Hawaiian, and in Māori Kia Kaha means be strong and Hoea is the call to paddle. Many clubs give all their canoes names from one theme.
