The flag contains symbolism coming from both inside and outside of the city. The shield depicted in the flag has been used since 1895 when a republic was established after the overthrow of the kingdom. The yellow color present in both the shield and the flag represent the island of O‘ahu (yellow being the color yellow ‘ilima).{{Cite web |date=2022 |title=Honolulu, Hawaii, City Flag |url=https://flagpolesetc.com/blog/honolulu-hawaii-city-flag |access-date=2022-10-14 |website=flagpolesetc.com}}
