@grant_whitbourne: Moana is Polyneutral

H. K :

Moana is maori. We still use that name today and have always. Throughout generation. Moana the movie is about all indigenous people…

Dallena Tatana :

I thought she was Hawaiian 😁

tffs :

Why are samoans mad that some maoris call her moana 🤣🤣🤣

Joatz :

I think you'll find Moana is Motunuian 😁

oa♌ :

Moana represents all of us ffd

thurgoodmarshall :

All these islanders that live through other islanders. Give it a rest

Pace_ondaCase3127 :

🤜 Nuxx 🤛 :

I’m NOT Māori but Moana dis the HONGI ! Maui did the Haka ! But agreed to Polyneutral ❤

AJfeuiaki🇹🇴🇫🇯🇳🇿✊🏽 :

Moana was the deep Pacific Ocean that connected all the islands she was always the Ocean, nothing more. People named their children after the ocean and that’s how they came up with their stories but she was never a human being 😂😂😂

TEWFAT :

idk if Moana is Samoan but she definitely isnt Maori thats for sure

Chekkitowt :

Maui wasint even the name Samoans called that trickster they just called him ti’iti’i .. first stories to ever be documented on paper about Maui came from Māori and Hawaiians and that’s how it got popularised , heart of te fiti is greenstone inspired by Māori and koru design on it to signify new life .. Maui does the haka in Moana 1, Moana does haka in moana 2 .. the new island fished up by Maui in Moana 2 is inspired by Raiatea which is havaii Nui aka hawaiiki Nui .. an island sacred to Māori . The voice actors on Moana are 70 percent Māori voices. I can go on

AI Adventure Bot 🤖 :

My Māori wife Moana may disagree

JayKay08 :

There still hurt?

Ngaire Nukunuku :

😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

HH :

😂

Half-Pai :

A Samoan with a chicken named Heihei? 🥀

Julie Andrew :

Are you sure that was a Maori saying that because I didn't hear any Maori moan about Samoan using out Maui. Wea all Polynesians in our own rights.

måhź :

Moana is samoan maori for otara 😂

toko2uashorts_ :

As someone who had to research this the only answer is that Moana is Polynesian😂
