“Hua Moa” just sounds right for a banana that size. I can picture the person that named it making those sounds as a reaction to seeing it, and then just going with that as the name.

“Hua moa” is Hawaiian for “chicken egg.”

If that’s true… It’s not a very apt name for it.

I mean, there certainly are a shit load of chickens around, but that’s a newer development.
Hua can also mean fruit, so it’s possible it means “chicken fruit.” I’m not sure that makes any more sense, though.

Unless they mean it looks like an egg the size of a full-grown chicken.

I’m sure they mean a Moa chicken.
