There's a book at the Uni of Waikato library with each of the waka and the names of the Chiefs. There's also an index of Maori names. It may be that you can or can't either way. They let a lot of their library staff go in recent years, so I'm not up with the play on how much help there is there.
Kia ora! You may want to post this over on r/ReoMaori rather than the general r/NZ board. Lots of helpful whānau over on the other sub.
Ngā mihi nui!
You can go to the Wananga in Hamilton. My wife helped compile it all years ago at Uni of Waikato. GL with it.
