HRS §449-1.7
Using the word “escrow” when you are not an escrow depository
This law stops people who are not licensed escrow depositories from using the word “escrow” (or similar words) in a way that could make others think they are one. It only covers misleading use, not all uses of the word.

The statute, as written — Indicia of escrow depository prohibited
Unless licensed under this chapter to engage in the business of an escrow depository, no person may use the word "escrow" or words of similar import, or translations of those words, as a facetious or fanciful name, or in a manner that might suggest or tend to lead others into believing that the person is an escrow depository.
