The sweetheart
In the Hawaiian language, Kaipo is a gender-neutral name formed by the definite article 'ke' (which becomes 'ka' before certain sounds) and 'ipo', meaning sweetheart or lover. It is a traditional choice that reflects deep affection and endearment within a family. While used for both boys and girls in Hawaii, it is often perceived as a gentle, rhythmic choice for boys on the US mainland.
