The Maori name Te Poki I tried posting in the first name sight but it said it doesn't accept names in that structure so I just used Poki. I was able to post it as a Concerning the Moriori surname Tapu I used the Ta Re Moriori dictionary as reference. The Rapanui surnames in cases have history of not only surname usage but personal name usage as well such as Atan.

Please consider submitting these on the surname website, not the forename website. https://surnames.behindthename.com/

I've updated "Poki" to "Te Poki". Spaces are not allowed in given name submissions to prevent given name + middle name additions. However, an editor can make changes after the fact.
