Yeah, there was this huge campaign to vote for the state fish back when I was in grade school. There were prettier fish candidates but the trigger fish won because of its name popularized by the "Little Grass Shack" song.
Pshaw.
But that name's nothing.
Here are my sisters' Hawaiian names:
Older sister: Maileha'evaleonaunanokulepumepumehana.
Younger sister: Kaleolaniokeanuenue.
100% true, btw.
