Her full name is given as Kahoʻohokuokalani-i-kau-i-kaheahea ("she who sets the stars in heaven and adorns the celestial regions").
[1] According to the myth, Hoʻohokukalani is the daughter of the god Wākea[2][3] (Sky Father) or the expanse of the heavens[4] and his wife Papahānaumoku (Earth Mother),[5] who are the deities of male and female creative energy.
Wākea and Papahānaumoku (which means "to adorn the heavens with stars")[4] created the Hawaiian islands, and then, Hoʻohokukalani was born.
When Papahānaumoku went away with the priest, Wākea and Hoʻohokukalani had sexual relations, and she bore a stillborn son, called Hāloa.
Later, Wākea and Hoʻohokukalani produced another, living child, also called Hāloa, who was the first of the Native Hawaiian People.
