Ocean (obviously)
Sennan
Lowenna (associate with a surfer I’ve seen)
Lamorna- I really like but seems a bit marmite

Maria means "seas" in Latin (though that's not where the name comes from, it's coincidence - but still conjures up the sea for me).

Coralie

Any island name - Isla, Iona, Ailsa

Sealoa (See-LOW-Ah). Friends of ours called their DD this. I think it's beautiful. He is the captain of a ship and it's a nautical term. I think it means 'sea level over all' or something like that.

There's a little girl called Oceana I see around in this area. Her mum pronounces it Oh-she-aah-na, not just ocean-a.

Not strictly a "sea" name I suppose, but Adrianna always makes me think of the deep sea blue colour I associate with the Adriatic.

Anenome, little sea creatures but I love the way it sounds.

Cotswoldmama · 18/12/2021 18:35

Anemone is a flower so wouldn't be that strange as a name.

@Mumsnut

Maris
As long as your surname isn't Piper. Grin

The thing is, you have to be very careful not to make your new child sound like a boat. However, what about Ariel for a nod to the little mermaid? I love that name!

That's a word I often trip over.

Amemome
Amenome
Anemoneomne

Sennen is lovely but it is spelled with an E if you want it to be related to the ocean! Lowenna and Lamorna are also lovely but not necessarily ocean/sea related other than the fact they are Cornish and Cornwall has a coast... Lowenna means Joy for example.

Cove
Coral
Pearl
Zennor
Ariel
Marina

BiscuitLover3678 · 18/12/2021 19:01

My first thoughts were
Marina
Aries
Azure
Darya

BiscuitLover3678 · 18/12/2021 19:02

Ariel not Aries

That horrible club chain where you get groped whilst listening to cheesy music Wink
