Tips for Creating a Hawaiian Boat Name

Boating in Hawaii evokes mental images of peace and paradise. Total relaxation awaits boaters off the shores of Hawaii.

If you are lucky enough to have a boat in Hawaii, or just want your boat name to reflect the Hawaiian spirit, keep the following tips in mind:

  • Image the feelings that boating in Hawaii creates. Think of the perfect word or group of words to describe your mood as you traverse the seas in Hawaii. Just thinking of the word may put you in a great mood, and it might just be the perfect boat name!
  • Translate words and phrases into Hawaiian. Meaningful words and/or phrases make great boat names in general. You may want to use the Hawaiian translation of a favorite word or phrase to name your Hawaiian boat. Get a Hawaiian language dictionary or use an online translation tool to find the perfect option.
  • Check out the other boats. You may find just the inspiration you were looking for by reading other boat names. You can choose a similar name to those you find or pick a name that is completely the opposite and unique.
