Birds with 2 maori names

Maori has been a important factor in my lifestyle, the Karearea has 2 maori names and thanks to the internet I have found another one with 2 Maori names, the Haast Eagle. After some searching on pics of Moa I have found a picture of two being chased by a Haast Eagle, but have also found its other maori name. Its Maori names are 'Te Pouakai' and of course the most recent one which I have found 'Te Hokioi'. Good on ya for this website for detailing this massive but more famous than the Adzebill. U have given me great hope for finding more information about this massive bird which I am doing research on for one of my old teachers at Salisbury School. Here is this website which I am talking about down below.
