You can't really "translate" names; if your name is "Bo" in Alabama, it's still "Bo" if you're in Hawaii or China or Russia... though it may be written differently, and the locals may have difficulty pronouncing it the same way you do.Hawaiian technically doesn't use the letter B (the closest equivalent is P), but Hawaiians (nearly all of whom also speak English) do know what it is and use it when writing non-Hawaiian words.

How do you spell princess in hawaiian?
There really is no equivalent, although the Hawaiian dictionary listed what the previous answer below has. That person only looked it up online and had they paid attention, would've seen "crown princess" and the definition of that listed was ho'oilina mo'i wahine. A mo'i is the supreme ruler, while wahine indicates a female, so in that sense mo'i wahine is a Queen. The word ho'oilina refers to inheritance, or legacy, in this sense it is the crown prince(ss), the one next in line. But to us Hawaiians, they were all ali'i. They were the ones fit to rule, so unless they were an actual mo'i which we still referred to them as ali'i, they are all ali'i.ANSWER"Kamali'i wahine" is how you say princess in hawaiian....aloha!
