Doh, thanks. I even googled to check my spelling but the first article that came up was from The Guardian which also misspelled it :'(
A classroom at my childrens' primary school was called Maungatere (floating mountain) after a nearby mountain which is now called Maukatere, same meaning.
Likewise the local iwi/tribe in my area is known both as Kāi Tahu and Ngāi Tahu, and there's a town in North Canterbury called Rangiora, which translates to, roughly "Good sky", while the 3rd largest island of Aotearoa New Zealand is called Rakiura / Stewart Island, Rakiura meaning "Glowing sky".
And our tallest mountain Aoraki / Mount Cook used to be Aorangi / Mount Cook.
And to be fair, "Mounga" is a decent rendition of how you pronounce "Maunga".
