What does pōmaikaʻi mean in Hawaiian?
Pōmaikaʻi is blessedness and good fortune — the state of having been favoured. It is a common blessing and a common name.
Say it poh-my-KAH-ee. Every vowel is pronounced, and the capitalized syllable takes the stress. The ʻokina (ʻ) is a short catch in the voice, like the break in “uh-oh”. A vowel with a line over it (kahakō) is held a little longer. The pronunciation guide covers the rules.
