KA : Koa Kahiko means "old warrior". Perhaps an old warrior lived on this street? I thought it was a cool name is all. Domain is transportation.

When I went to Nuka in Maui, I noticed right away how the sign uses Japanese writing along with English. Being there in person made me realize how normal multilingualism is in Hawaiʻi. I usually walk past signs without thinking, but this time I actually paid attention to the languages being used. Seeing Japanese on the sign made me think about how many visitors and locals speak it, and how the restaurant wants everyone to feel comfortable. It also showed me that language in public spaces is not just for information it reflects culture, community, and who is included.

KA : Pū'ōhala menas the fruit of the hala. Pū is a very specific Hawaiian word for which there is no good translation but in this case it's like the fruit of the hala tree. The school is also a Hawaiian Immersion school
