A meaningful girls name referring to nature and the weather but close to a real name

I want to find a girl's name means something like rain or mist or sea or snow or something natural to do with the weather or water, but that also sounds like a name.

I know there's no end of girls names that come from flowers, but what about from the weather or water?

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?
