Lately I have been playing with [name_f]Mazarine[/name_f] [name_f]Maris[/name_f] in honor of my family. [name_f]Mazarine[/name_f] is a type of blue butterfly and my sis has a blue butterfly tattoo. It’s also a type of succulent and my mother loved her beautiful lush succulent garden. My dad was a seaman so [name_f]Maris[/name_f] makes sense, also [name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Maris[/name_f] relates to my hometown. I love the alliteration! [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t care if others don’t like it.
My question is about sea names. I want to know my options for sea names/water names for the MN. Questions: 1) What sea or water names do YOU love? 2) [name_f]Do[/name_f] any sea names besides [name_f]Maris[/name_f] go well with [name_f]Mazarine[/name_f] to you?
Here are some I found:
[name_f]Marina[/name_f] (too literal, I grew up near a marina, so it’s weird as a name)
[name_f]Muriel[/name_f] ‘of the bright shining sea’
[name_f]Meriel[/name_f] same as above but the pronunciation is MER-ee-uhl or [name_f]MAIR[/name_f]-ee-uhl or MEER-ee-uhl, too many variations bother me!
[name_u]Meredith[/name_u] ‘protector of the sea’
[name_f]Nixie[/name_f] ‘little water sprite’
[name_f]Maris[/name_f] ‘of the sea’
Maricia ‘of the sea’
Marisabel ‘of the beautiful sea’
Talulah ‘leaping water’
[name_f]Morwenna[/name_f] - “white seas”’
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] - “sea chief” or “sea defender”
[name_f]Undine[/name_f] - water sprite
[name_f]Ondine[/name_f] - water sprite
[name_f]Nerida[/name_f] - a water nymph in [name_m]Greco[/name_m]-[name_m]Roman[/name_m] mythology, also means ‘red water lily’ in one of the Australian Aboriginal languages.
[name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] - goddess named tied to a river.
I also love [name_f]Melusine[/name_f] but [name_f]Mazarine[/name_f] [name_f]Melusine[/name_f] is not good.
If [name_f]Marina[/name_f]/[name_f]Marine[/name_f] is too literal for you, then perhaps you’ll like [name_f]Marin[/name_f]. I think it’s adorable and much more subtle as a sea reference. Good luck!
