Oceana

[Lilyhop]

Or any other water / ocean inspired names?

Oceana is my favourite but also on the list -River Rose
-Lakelyn
-Niagara

Océane is popular in France, if that helps

Agree

Ocean is much better than Oceana
Lakelynn is awful. Lake isn't to my taste but you could possibly use Lake but not with Ricki as a first name. There must be prettier names that make you think of bodies of water - lake is like puddle and not so pretty imo. Maybe if you have a son ?
Niagra is awful. Lots of jokes about waterfalls and falling over
River is very unisex imo. Would that bother you ?

You could go Disney themed and have a Moana.

Or Ariel

It doesn't seem right that you won't have a name that he loves and you like but you think it's fine to go with a name that you love and he likes

Only if you have another child named Eurasia!

Ha cross post!😂

I know someone called Lake. Stupid name. What about Ondine?Marina?

Sounds befitting of a troup of mermaids... or strippers.

La’mer 😁

Chanelle ?

Ca’nal

oh no don't. People will laugh

Cordelia, daughter of the sea, Kalami Hawaiian for sea and sky nixie, (water nymph)

Coral is nice.

What about ö? That’s island in Swedish.

Sjö is lake.

Hav is sea.

Or you could have Flod or Ström (river, stream).

Or you can mine other languages for words for sea/ocean.

Or Pudzua is puddle in basque.

navodnjavanje is irrigation in Croatian.

üleujutus is flood in Estonian.

holræsi is drain in Icelandic

All water themed.

Fluss (River in German)

Bingha is glacier in Korean.

ranomandry is ice in Malagasy.

even better if you make up a pronunciation.

I agree Ocean is nicer. Oceana is not good. Delta, Lake, Adriana?

Jiidhaa is wet in Oromo.

Mindi is soggy in Arabic.

nyirkos is damp in Hungarian.

The French version Océane is nicer.

Amaya, Brooke, Kendra, Meridith, Rhea/Ria, Talia - all have water connections too.

I don’t like it personally, and niagara sounds like viagra …just saying…
