The topknot is called a tikitiki. It's name is derived from the birth of Maui. When Maui was born prematurely and was thought to be stilborn. His mother Taranga cut her topknot off, wrapped Maui in it and threw him out to sea. Hence his name, Maui-tikitiki-a-Taranga (Maui in the topknot of Taranga). As Maui was rescued and raised by Tangaroa, who taught him many magical powers and many myths involve this demigod. The topknot therefore signifies power like that of Maui.
