LeiLehua is Hawaiian in Origin.

LeiLehua is a modern styling of the Hawaiian name Leilehua, built from lei ("garland, wreath") and lehua (the scarlet blossom of the native ohia tree). Together it evokes "a lei of lehua blossoms," a symbol of love, honor, and resilient beauty in Hawaiian poetry. Through the legend of Ohia and Lehua, the flower also signifies faithful devotion and the life-giving rains of the islands.

Used primarily in Hawaii from the late 19th century onward and appearing in mele (chants) and in place names on Oahu’s Leilehua Plateau, the name remains uncommon outside the Pacific but recognized within Hawaiian communities. Variants and related forms include Leilehua (standard), Lei Lehua, Lehua, Lei, Leilani ("heavenly lei"), and Leimomi ("pearl lei"). Nicknames often shorten to Lei or Lehua. While largely feminine in contemporary use, Hawaiian given names are traditionally unisex. Pronunciation: lay-leh-HOO-ah (four syllables).
