Haho (born c. 1098 in Hawaii) was an ancient Hawaiian High Chief (Alii), who was a Moʻi of Maui. He is mentioned in legends and old chants and is also called Hoaho.
Haho was a son of Paumakua of Maui and High Chiefess Manokalililani, who was a daughter of Chiefess Hoʻohokukalani II and sister of Paumakua.
He married High Chiefess Kauilaʻanapa (also called Kauilaianapu in chants). Their son was Palena of Maui and his daughter-in-law was Hikawai-Nui, who was a daughter of Kauilaʻanapa and her other husband, Limaloa-Lialea.
Haho and his son are mentioned in chant Kumulipo.
Haho was remembered as the founder of the Aha-Aliʻi, an institution which literally means "the congregation of chiefs".
