HMMMM -- got mahu for Hawaiian, kathoey for Thai. Still looking for Polynesian. Ok, maybe fa'afafines? Wild search -- thanks!

Yep, that seems to be it -- even Wikipedia says so! They add another two as well, and include mahu:

"Fa'afafine (Samoa), fakaleiti (Tonga), rae rae or mahu (French Polynesia) is a Polynesian concept related to gender role and gender identity."
