CLAUDE
and the feminine forms CLAUDIA, CLAUDETTE, and CLAUDINE are derived from the name of an ancient Roman patrician family. It is said to be connected with the Latin word cladus which means lame. In old Hawaii the ALI'I were the patricians or royal families. 'O'OPA is the Hawaiian word for lame or a lame person. Another more appealing form for this name would be MAULIAUHONUA which means descendant of old high chiefs of a land, ancient as an established family.
