Well, my mother gave me this name at the onset of her illness (Alzheimer's Disease). She was mad at me when I took her car & money away from her - as per doctor's orders. I'm guessing - since I was in charge of everything, she started to call me the Great Kahuna. I wasn't happy about it at first, but it kinda grew on me. Now when I mention the Great Kahuna to her she just chuckles. At this stage of the game with her illness, anything that brings a smile to her face is a good thing. By the way, my real name is Joanie...
