Aiea, Hawaii was the short answer given previous to my input. This answer is somewhat right. The name of 'Aiea in the Hawaiian language is a 5 letter word. Its spelling begins with the letter called an 'okina. As strange as it may seem the 'okina, which is represented in writing as an inverted apostrophe, is a full-fledged Hawaiian consonant. You can spell 'Aiea as Aiea without the 'okina, but now it is an Anglicized version of a Hawaiian word and to that extent it is a legitimate spelling, however it is no longer a correctly spelled Hawaiian word. For the purposes of the US Federal Government, they probably exclude the 'okina (and kahako) used in Hawaiian spelling.
