Ke Alohi is Hawaiian in Origin.

Ke Alohi is a Hawaiian given name formed from the definite article ke (“the,” used before words beginning with a, e, o, or k) plus ʻalohi (“to shine, sparkle; brightness, brilliance”). The sense is “the radiance,” “the shining one,” or “the brightness,” and it is used for any gender. As with many Hawaiian names, it preserves a poetic image rather than a single fixed meaning.

In Hawaiian naming practice, articles such as Ke and Ka commonly introduce phrase-names; Ke Alohi follows the same pattern seen in classic aliʻi names and many modern given names. Usage has persisted into the present and grew alongside the late 20th-century Hawaiian language and culture revival. Orthographic variants include Keʻalohi (with the ʻokina, often preferred in Hawaiian), Kealohi (closed form, common in English contexts), and Ke Alohi (spaced). Related forms include Alohi (short form) and compounds like Kealohilani (“the brightness of heaven”).
