Loimata

Loimata is a girl’s name of Samoan origin, meaning “tears.” Tears can come from all kinds of emotions, and sensitivity is not a bad trait to have. After all, you’re sure to shed a tear of joy when you see baby for the first time! Loimata: The Sweetest Tears is a 2020 documentary film about Lila Ema Siope, who built ocean-going waka—traditional canoes—to sail around the Pacific. This heroic real-life wayfinder would be a wonderful source of inspiration for your little one.
