Mermaid Naming Thread

All good names so far.

I had a look at some Polynesian/Hawaiian names and found a few more suggestions for the merfolk of Sulani...

Female
Moanna/Moana – ocean or deep sea
Momi – pearl
Momilani - heavenly pearl, royal pearl
Leimomi - pearl child, wreath of pearls
Kala – virtue, princess, variant of Sarah
Millawa – peaceful ocean waves
Vaitiare – water flower
Malana/Malina - calming, soothing
Naia – to flow
Kaia – to rejoice, sea
Kailana/Kailani – sea and sky / heavenly seas
Kailea - joyful sea
Anela – angel
Hani – joyful
Noelani – heavenly mist
Leilani – a heavenly flower, royal child
Malia – bitter, Hawaiian variant of Mary. Another possible meaning is calm and peaceful (waters)
Ona – sweetness
Ulani – cheerful
Mahina – moon
Melelani - heavenly song
Lilinoe - goddess of haze
Waiola - water of life, also a variant of Viola, violet flower

Male
Kai – sea
Kaimana - powerful sea / power of the sea, diamond
Kaikea - white, clear sea
Kaikoa - ocean warrior
Kainalu – flowing ocean
Kaiholo – moving sea
Kaikane – strong/masculine sea
Kalani - of the heavens; my fish, spirit of the sky
Kawai – coming from water
Nawai - the waters
Kaleo – the voice, sound
Nalu - wave, surf

A lot of these are unisex too.

Gilly Seaweed
Swimmy McSwimface
Splashy Tailbutt
Bubbles Conchblower (I imagine this would be the leader)

One surname that I've been using is Aalto because it means 'wave' in Finnish :D Meri 'sea' is also a common female name here.

These are great already! Very thorough list.

My personal favorite names that could also be good is

Mirella. or Mirella Marie (MER - ella)
Tia
Nani
Niah
Calypso
