iʻoa ｜ proper nounBay, Honolulu Harbor to Pearl Harbor, Oʻahu, named for a shark woman who lived at the entrance of Honolulu Harbor and often played kōnane. She left her shark husband, ʻOuha, for Honokaʻupu. ʻOuha then became the shark god of Waikīkī and of Koko Head (Finney and Houston 39; Westervelt, 1964b:15, 52-54).
