What Lomalokki means?

Direct translation for the name of this activity list, Lomalokki, is "Holiday seagull". We chose the name through a contest for young people because we thought it was funny and summery!
Lomalokki was originally published only for summer holiday. That is why we wanted to find a name that reminds us of summer.
