Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet’s journey as parents has been filled with love, adventure, and a deep connection to their Hawaiian roots. The couple welcomed two children together before their separation in January 2024, Lola Iolani and Nakoa-Wolf, each with a story as unique as their names.

Lola Iolani Momoa, 16, was born on July 21, 2007, marking the beginning of Momoa and Bonet’s parenthood journey. Lola’s middle name, Iolani, meaning “royal hawk,” pays homage to Momoa’s Hawaiian heritage. Despite almost missing her birth due to filming commitments, Momoa cherishes the precious moments of her arrival and has openly shared his emotional journey as a girl-dad. Lola, described as a fan of sitcoms like Friends, shares a special bond with her father and older sister, Zoë Kravitz.

Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa, 15, arrived on December 15, 2008, completing the family with his strong Hawaiian name. Momoa’s dedication to embracing his culture is evident in Nakoa-Wolf’s name, signifying a warrior born amidst dark and rainy weather. Momoa’s experience of growing up without a father influences his approach to parenting, striving to foster vulnerability and connection with his son.

As Momoa’s career continues to soar, his role as a father remains a priority. In the film Dune, Momoa subtly communicates his love for Nakoa-Wolf through martial arts gestures, showcasing the depth of their bond beyond the screen. Despite the challenges of divorce, Momoa and Bonet remain committed to co-parenting and nurturing their children’s growth with love and support.

While their journey as a couple may have taken a different path, Momoa and Bonet’s legacy as devoted parents endures, leaving a lasting impact on Lola and Nakoa-Wolf’s lives.
