Hawaiian goddess of volcanoes and fire (4)

I believe the answer is:

pele

(Other definitions for pele that I've seen before include "Brazil's hero" , "Brazilian footballing legend" , "Noted Brazilian footballer" , "Footballing legend, aka Edison Arantes do Nascimento" , "Brazilian footballer, Edison Arantes do Nascimento" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and The Washington Post.
