I was discovered in 2003

It's been by the sea, air and not by the observatory

My first nickname was Santa

Before the IAU named me

One of our system's fastest rotating large objects I will be

My name Haumea

Comes from the Hawaiian culture you see

It means goddess of childbirth and fertility

My name's Haumea

I have two moons

Hi'aka and Namaka orbiting me

Namaka is the smaller, Hi'iaka is large and icy

Makes just one day on my rocky surface

I take 285 earth years to make one orbit

My surface is believed to have a thin but icy coating
