Means "righteous" or "good" in Hawaiian. Calling someone "pono" means they are good, nice, etc. Usually a boy name, but can sometimes be a girl's. Watch out –even if it means "good", they might be a bad boy, or an evil, gossiping, trashy snake of a girl.
a very cute guy thats from hawii. a Monica usely likes him. Pono's will marry Monica's and live happily ever after. But Ponos know that the Monica's love them but choose not to love them untill the future. funnny,sweet,athletic but unfortunley everyone thinks Ponos are fags,queers,and annoying but Monica's. Pono's usually likes Alexis's(Monica's best friend) but then sees Monica is better
