Help! Ocean/Water names for girls!

[Liz0440]

Hi! I’m looking for a name that’s related with the ocean or water. I’ve been getting some recommendations, but I still can’t seem to find one that sounds really right to me.
I don’t want the name to be too out there that it’d be awkward to say the name out loud in a Starbucks shop (or for the worker not to have the faintest idea how to spell it). I also don’t want raised eyebrows whenever the name is introduced :(
Here are all of the names that were recommended! Some of them I don’t really like, and some of them are just ok to me. If you think any of these names sounds ok, please let me know!

Coral Cordelia Delphine Madeline Marina Marissa Meredith Nerissa Oceana Tallulah Thalassa

Apart from these, if you guys know any other ocean/water names that you think was really nice, please let me know! I really need the help. Thank you!

(Over the sea to) Skye. Bit of a tenuous link I admit!

Shoal as in shoal of fish.

River.

Raine.

Marina is stunning. Absolutely gorgeous!

Nixie is the German word for water nymph.

Xanthe is beautiful.

Brook

Evian 🙊

Sorry not helpful, I’m liking Coralie though

Daria/Darya - meaning ‘sea’.

Ara - meaning ‘brings the rain’ - seen as a gift as without rain crops and land would not flourish.

Kendra - means ‘clear water’

Hali - Greek for ‘sea’

Marella - means ‘of the bright sea’

Maya - in Hebrew means ‘sea’ and the Roman goddess of the spring

Morgan - means ‘circling sea’

Tali - meaning ‘dew’

Talise - meaning ‘lovely water’

Tallulah - meaning ‘leaping water’

Melusina

Cordelia is cool

But there are some pretty tacky suggestions on here. Just think about what the name would look like on a job application. You don't want to give your child a name that holds her back or causes embarrassment when she's older. Avoid aqua, etc...

Calypso

Agree with chocolate. By all means choose an ocean themed name but make it a proper name that won’t put her at a disadvantage in her life/career.

I work in France in a male dominated industry and there is a very senior woman called Delphine here. I also knew a lovely (and very successful) Nerissa in the UK. (Wonderful Shakespearean name.)

Coral is gorgeous.

Moana

Miranda? From The Tempest

Willow is quite watery - you get them by rivers

Arva - Latin, from the sea
Ianthe - name of a sea nymph
Meri - sea
Odeta - Albanian, blue sea
Ondine - water sprouts
Ula - sea jewel, Irish

Water *SPRITE

Not water sprouts........

How would Meri be pronounced?

Morvoren (mermaid), Morgelyn (sea holly) or Zennor.

I've always thought Meri like Merry but I suppose it does go against OP's wish for a name to be obvious re spelling/pronunciation!

Zarya - a water priestess from Slavic mythology

Cheryth - "stream bed"

Jordana - as in the river Jordan

Odette - meaning "wealth" but also the name of a swan in "Swan Lake"

Sabrina - gave her name to a river in Celtic legend

Ianthe - means "violet flower". A sea nymph and daughter of Oceanus in mythology.

Mary, Manon, Marietta, Marianne, Miriam, Molly, Polly, Marina, Maribel - "star of the sea"

Nerida, Nerissa - sea nymph

Ondine - "little wave"

Ferrilyn. Ferry for short.
