Oceanic Names

Tahitian names are not well-known beyond the South Sea islands, but with their nature meanings and the new popularity of Hawaiian names, they may travel far in the future.

This ocean-oriented name is one of the Tahitian names unknown in the wider world.

Tiare, which means flower, is also a name and would make a simpler South Sea Islander choice. Vaitiare adds a water element.

This Indian name would make the perfect choice for those looking for a strong water-based name. A variation which may seem more immediately masculine to the English-speaking ear is Varun. The feminine version is Varuni, who was Varuna's consort.
