Meaning and background
The story behind Aloha
Aloha is a Hawaiian word with a much richer range than a simple holiday greeting. The Pukui–Elbert dictionary records love, affection, compassion, kindness and forms of greeting or farewell. As a dog name it can be said warmly and clearly, but that does not make it a historical Hawaiian personal name. Its documented meanings belong first to the Hawaiian word itself.
