Names That Mean Tide

  1. Hurley
    • Origin:

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      "sea tide"
    • Description:

      Hurley is a possibility as a unisex surname-name ending with the "lee" sound. It is perhaps most associated with British actress Elizabeth Hurley, and is much rarer than Harley, because the "ur" sound is currently out of fashion (and the word "hurl" may put some off).
  2. Marea
    • Origin:

      Spanish
    • Meaning:

      "tide"
    • Description:

      Mar — Spanish for "sea" — was a fast-riser in 2022. The beautiful Marea, meaning "tide" certainly deserves consideration as well.
  3. Shione
    • Origin:

      Japanese
    • Meaning:

      "sound of the tide"
    • Description:

      Young Japanese stars Shione Sawada and Shione Kaminaga have brought some attention to this uncommon Japanese name.
