### 3/5 — Transliteration

*2019-09-11*

Pretty good basic function for most names, all other levels/ actions cost minimal. Program does straight transliteration not translation. Like the background music😊

Mahalo!!🌴🏄🏽‍♀️🌺🍍🐚🌊🐠🎍⛵️🏝

Everyone whose heard their name in Hawaiian are anxious adopt their newly found as their new official nickname

### 4/5 — Confused at first

*2015-02-01*

It kept telling me I was doing it wrong and I was confused because all you do Is put your name in. But apparently my name is of Hawaiian origin so it wouldn't convert it. My name is kiana.

### 3/5 — Paying

*2015-01-25*

Really Cool app finding out your Hawaiian name but it's really annoying that you have to pay to listen to it and to do everything else you have to pay. Please make us not pay for everything fix it please.

### 1/5 — Don't buy

*2017-07-05*

I upgrade to the audio pack. It will not let me use. Keeps saying if I wAnt to purchase! Ugh.I already!!!

**Developer response:** Dear Kmurf2,

We're sorry to hear that.

Just go to settings and click and restore purchases and that should resolve the issue.

Please let us know if the issue still persists.

Kind regards,
Bassm

### 1/5 — Doesn't load, just keeps opening ads

*2016-12-29, version 2.7*

This app is just an ad generator. Loaded 5 ads in less than 3 seconds. Clicking anywhere loads another ad.

### 1/5 — Terrible App & company

*2016-06-11, version 2.7*

BranchenKing Ltd has no idea what they are doing. Do not download anything with their name on it, save yourself the headache

### 1/5 — Terrible company ruined ambition

*2016-06-09, version 2.7*

Terrible company terrible people

### 1/5 — Anything else but this!

*2016-06-07, version 2.7*

Don't, just .... Don't

### 1/5 — WORST APP EVER

*2015-09-06, version 2.7*

It keeps on saying cannot be found so it won't tell me my Hawaiian name it's stupid👿😡😤😖🙀💩

### 1/5 — Fake

*2013-01-22*

Any REAL hawaiian will tell u that u can't translate a name to a hawaiian name.  That's like going to Japan or Africa and asking them how to say John in their language.... They don't have a word "John" in their vocabulary so can't translate it.  The only way your name is translatable is if your name is an actual word like Sky or Ocean, an actual word rather then name.  Use common sense people.

### 2/5 — Please add our names

*2015-08-21, version 2.7*

I got a little mad when they couldn't translate my name because it was already Hawaiian.Also they couldn't translate my sisters name.my sisters is Elani and mine is Kai

### 2/5 — I thought it would be cool....

*2014-09-12*

It said I couldn't find my name unless I bought the other pack and I was thinking oh hell to the no!😠like if u can't even find my name without having to spend money what on the world makes u think I would want to spend money just trying to find my name and even if I did buy the pack they would have my name if I bought the pack cause if they did it might be some fake random word so now sadly I'm gonna have to delete this app

### 2/5 — It's 👌

*2012-02-01, version 1.2*

Unlike the other app of words this one is ok 
You won't find everyone's name,but you do find most people's 
Want to have fun find your middle name as well as your find & some may be able to do their whole name 
EX: John Quincy Adam = Keoni Kineki Akamu  
You won't be able in most cases get your full name in Hawaiian,but you can attempt to 
So rating it gets 🌟🌟 & 👌
You can always do a search online for names

### 5/5 — Malia

*2020-11-11*

Very informative. I am asked many times about the Hawaiian names. In this app I can always type in the names and and get the Hawaiian version than look up the meaning.

### 5/5 — Fun and Respecting our names

*2019-01-10, version 3.1*

Have really enjoyed learning names of friends and family!  As a new transplant to Hawaii from mainland, learning names has been fun and engaging the locals!

### 5/5 — Fun for the islands and the mainland

*2018-07-18*

This is a great way to learn your names in Hawaiian.  They also have an app for words that are not names.

If you have a two-word name you may need to type each word by itself and then speak them together.

Thank you for this app!
