Analu is a multicultural given name with two principal origins. In Hawaiian, ʻAnalu is the local form of Andrew (Greek Andreas), introduced through 19th‑century missionary contact and used among Native Hawaiian Christian families. It carries the same meaning as Andrew - “manly,” “brave,” or “male warrior.” The spelling with the ʻokina (ʻAnalu) reflects Hawaiian phonology; without it, Analu appears in English records. Related variants and cognates include Andrew, André, Andreas, and Māori Anaru, and the name persists in Hawaiʻi and Pacific Islander diasporas.

In Brazilian Portuguese, Analu or Analú functions primarily as a feminine blend of Ana + Luísa/Luiza or Lúcia, now sometimes bestowed as an independent name. Its layered meanings combine Ana (“grace,” from Hebrew Hannah) with either Luísa (“famous in battle”) or Lúcia (“light”). Variants include Ana Lu, Ana-Lu, Ana Luiza, and Ana Lúcia. Usage today can be unisex across cultures.
