Behind the Name
Hōkūnui translates to “Majestic Star,” a name rich with meaning and symbolism. The concept of a star carries profound implications, as it can be seen as a “sun,” a source of light and life. In addition to providing life, stars have historically served as essential tools for wayfinding, and guiding navigators across vast oceans and unknown landscapes. They act as beacons, helping individuals find their way.
