there are two real-life places called motu nui, but this could also be a case of foreigners coming and misinterpreting the locals’ language, like how we call the desert in the north of africa the sahara desert (‘desert desert’). so yeah disney is still bad at naming stuff lol

oh yeah, I mean, of course there is always a couple of places that in fact end up called in such way, here at mexico is the same, there is a place here called what sounds like a femenine version of pueblo and so on, but i think indeed this is just disney being terrible at names, so I really would prefer they didn’t used something SO DIRECT to call whatever fictional place they make to use on their movie
