Can you please give me the meaning of the name "Hauraki". Thank you.

Cheers,

Chad Thompson

Done. Cheers MadMaxDog 22:17, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The map of Hauraki Gulf may be misleading as it shows the extents going up Coromandel, but not across Great Barrier and encompassing Little Barrier. I understand that the Gulfs easterly limit would be bounded by Croromandel and Great Barrier and it's Norther limit bounded by Great Barrier, Little Barrier and Cape Rodney. This is not indicated on the map. Thanks StefanRichardson (talk) 22:39, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hauraki Gulf → Hauraki Gulf / Tīkapa Moana – This has been officially renamed already in 2014, time to update this. See Aoraki / Mount Cook for reference. Gryffindor (talk) 06:48, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support - there's a long precedent of using dual names when they are offical, and such moves have been previously determined as uncontroversial. Hauraki Gulf / Tīkapa Moana is used in a variety of recent sources, including Encyclopedia Britannica and the Americas Cup. Turnagra (talk) 05:01, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per WP:CONCISE and WP:COMMONNAME. There’s no reason to make the name longer than necessary, and the dual name adds no specificity for the added length; nobody who knows the dual name doesn’t already know the current name. — HTGS (talk) 10:00, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The guidelines are very clear that the official name of a place is not sufficient to change the title of a Wikipedia article. As per WP:NCGN, WP:RECENTISM, and WP:COMMONNAME, there is not sufficient evidence to show that the requested name is commonly used to the point were an article name change is required.

Comment Also see WP:CONCISE, WP:UCRN, and here Spekkios (talk) 06:24, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support as per dual / bi lingual use in New Zealand English. Stuartyeates (talk) 02:40, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support as per NZ naming conventions. There is usage beyond mandatory official usage therefore it should be moved. ShakyIsles (talk) 04:49, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: It might be worth noting these ongoing discussions:

There may be some question of whether the relevant aspect of NZ naming conventions actually reflect[s] the consensus of the community. While these discussions are ongoing, I decline to present my own opinion on this proposed move. BilledMammal (talk) 07:17, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. There is a current RfC proposal draft on the guidelines for dual names. Spekkios (talk) 23:52, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
