Yes, Mount Kilauea is also known as "Kilauea Volcano." In Hawaiian, it is referred to as "Kīlauea," which means "spewing" or "much spreading," reflecting its frequent eruptions. Additionally, some local indigenous names may refer to specific features or aspects of the volcano, but "Kilauea" remains its most recognized name.
Actually, Mount Kilauea doesn't have any nicknames. They're mostly all fake but Hawaiians often call it "Hot Spot."
Legend says that Pele, goddess of the volcanoes, lives in Mount Kilauea.
No. Kilauea and the other Hawaiian volcanoes are at a hot spot nowhere near any plate boundary.
As of 2014 Kilauea has been erupting continuously for 31 years and shows no signs of stopping any time soon.
The 1983 eruption of Mount Kilauea did not result in any fatalities. Several injuries were reported, mostly due to volcanic gases and lava flows. The eruption lasted for over 30 years, causing extensive damage to property but no loss of life.

Pahoehoe lava comes out of the Kilauea volcano. Hope I helped. But hey, do you know any other volcanoes that spew pahoehoe? Need help on homework. Answer it!
I only think it was MARY. I am not sure of any other names.
None of the above.The volcano is on the big island of Hawaii. See the related link for more information. Though it is on a Hawaiian island and part of the United States, country's claims to places do not effect their geographic location. Kilauea is on the Pacific plate and is part of the United States, however it is not part of the North American tectonic plate. Also for example Southern California west of the San Andreas fault is not on the North American Plate either, it is also on the Pacific.
No. Kilauea is not associated with any plate boundary. It is associates with a hot spot under the Pacific Plate.
