Hiroiti
Origin:Pacific Islander
Other Origin(s):Polynesian
Meaning:Little Hiro
Hiroiti is a masculine name of Pacific Islander and Polynesian origin. This moniker is thought to derive from Tahitian, the language spoken on the Pacific island of Tahiti. If you’re a fan of Polynesian mythology, Hiroiti’s first four letters might seem especially familiar. The Polynesian god of thieves was known as Hiro, yet another reason why this title may immediately steal your heart! When Hiro and the Tahitian word iti intertwine, Hiroiti translates to “little Hiro,” so perhaps your Hiroiti will have a mischievous side.
