Aroha is a beautiful name - I went to school with a girl called Aroha and she had a little sister called Marama.

And I had a Great-Aunt Tui, not sure if this is a traditional Maori name though.

If your DH/p IS Maori, how about consulting with a few people from his Whanau and get some elders to suggest some names from his Marae.
Here are a few

Ahu
Ahere
Ataahua
Ahorangi
Arorangi
Arikiwi
Emiri
Epa
Hauora
Hihiri
Hinemoana
Kahu
Kiri
Mariama

That's about it for now.
