Hawaiian Names
I wish Hawaiian names would be included in this database. Yes, some of them are created from English because of missionaries who came there, but I still think they are beautiful. I was disappointed to find, for example, that the name Keka was not recognized as Hawaiian for Seth.

Hawaiian names are included
http://www.behindthename.com/names/usage/hawaiianYou can submit a name here (it might not be added very soon though)
http://www.behindthename.com/submit/submit.phpIf you want to submit a lot of Hawaiian names, add information about your sources to your submissions, so they can be looked up and verified. You can contact Mike Campbell (site creator) persuading him of the credibility of your references and asking him to add the names, and it's pretty likely he would if your sources are good.
