Adrienne Alice is a beautiful name:) But PLEASE PLEASe PLEASE don't name her Pele.  Sooo not a good name to have!  Traditionally, a child's Hawaiian name is given at birth. Its kind of frustrating not knowing what babys whole name is but part of the excitement of their birth.  Also, where do you live?  If you live in Hawaii you can even have her first name being Hawaiian.  A little harder if not, no one will be able to pronounce it!  Are there any Hawaiian family names you like?  It's always nice to use those.

I love the idea of having the baby's name reflect her heritage. I have a few friends that were born in Hawaii and then moved back as adults. They have Hawaiian middle names and their kids have hawaiian first names, but they are both called by their nick name (short version of hawaiian name)


One example is Iolani, they call him Lani.


Another is Sunseri, they call her Sunny.


I also like they idea of giving the child their hawaiian name at birth, exciting.


Adrienne  Alice is a good start :)


I'm sure you will come up with the perfect name for her.
