      Origin

      Hawaiian

      Meaning

      Angry Disregard

      Variations

      Liliah, Lilian, Lilias
      The name Liliha has its origins in the Hawaiian language and translates to Angry Disregard. This unique name carries with it a rich history and has found its way into various facets of society, both in the past and present.

      In Hawaiian history, Liliha is most famously associated with a powerful chiefess who lived during the 19th century. Known as Liliha Bird of Paradise, she was recognized for her fierce demeanor and was a prominent figure in the Hawaiian court. Her name reflected her reputation for being unyielding, fierce, and prone to disregarding those who dared to oppose her. Liliha's influence extended beyond her lifetime, as her legacy left a lasting impact on both Hawaiian culture and the meaning attached to her name.

      In modern times, the name Liliha continues to be used, albeit less frequently. It is chosen by parents who wish to bestow their child with a name that carries a sense of strength and defiance. The name's association with anger and disregard can be seen as empowering to some, as it represents a willingness to stand up and assert oneself in the face of adversity. However, due to its strong connotations, the name Liliha may not be as popular as other Hawaiian names that evoke more positive sentiments. Despite its relative rarity, Liliha remains a distinct and intriguing choice for those seeking a name with deep historical and cultural roots.
