What are some good names, male and female, that are reminiscent of the sea / have meanings related to aquatic stuff?

Like Sebastian and Ariel but not so Disney.

I was at the doctor's office the other day and heard the worst name, made me want to cry. I actually pinched myself to see if I was dreaming (I'd been waiting awhile and had just had a lot of blood drawn... couldv'e fallen asleep... lol).

Tarjay (possibly Target?) They pronounced it the same way people, to be funny/mock pretentious, sometimes pronounce the big-box store 'Target'.

middle name for Wren

[lipsty.livejournal.com]

We're not ttc yet, but my husband and I have decided on the name Wren for when we have a daughter. I love the combo Wren Delphine, but husband vetoes this because "it sounds too much like Mike Delfino from Desperate Housewives." Silly reason in my opinion, but he won't be budged! Any suggestions for a middle name for Wren? Thanks!

just some random names I've picked up lately.

A couple local businesses have announced births on their signs by the road this week, three children in all: Lydia, and twins Celine and Ashley (boy).

As well, I started a new job, and one of my co-workers is Charity. Her younger sister's name is Harmony.

WDYT?

I work at an engraving store, which is always chockful of fun names. Anyway, today I engraved gifts to godparents from a little girl named Brienna. Not Brianna...Brienna. Which sounds kind of pretty if you didn't know it was totally made up. Thoughts?

What do we think about Dina(h)?

I've been kind of obsessed with it lately. Maybe due to Alice in Wonderland.

*edit- Totally didn't think about the Dee-na sound without the "h". Thought it'd just be Deena for that or Deana? I'm talking about DYE-NA, Dinah, apparently =]
