the Hawaiian language isn't a masculine language. So yah the names are gonna sound girly...they only have 12 letters...not too much to work with ya know. And most of the names were derived from English to Hawaiian. It's not like someone say named Kenike decided to say her name was Denise(in english) one day. They 12 letters correspond with the 26 letters of the English alphabet. This is why not all the names in the world have a translation.
