    Here are a few first names:

    Jolyon or Julian
    Kai
    Marin
    Alon
    Adrian
    Dylan

    I was trying to find shorter first names. Let me know if you don’t like any of these and I’ll find some new ones.

    Last Names: I just copied the meanings people said, so if they sound a little weird, it’s not from me. 😀

    Alvarado: I couldn’t really find a meaning for this last names but thought it sounded pretty cool.
    Darya: If you want a water inspired name, but are looking for something more original than Aqua or Tallulah, Darya should be your pick. Darya is an Iranian name, meaning ‘sea’.
    Hali: the Greek term for ‘sea’, would make an excellent alternative to the somewhat popular Halle. The pronunciation is similar, though.
    Marella: Stylish and sophisticated Marella is the Japanese version of Muriel and means ‘of the bright sea’.
    Moselle: The name Moselle, meaning ‘from the water’, in the Hebrew language.
    Rialta: is an Italian name, meaning ‘deep brook’, has a pleasant and antique feel to it.
    Coburn: This is a traditional Welsh name, meaning ‘rocky water’ or ‘stony river’.
    Destan: The French name Destan, meaning ‘by the still waters’, is traditionally used as a surname, but is delicate enough to be used as a first name too.
    Jordon: meaning ‘flowing down’, was initially given to children baptized in holy water from the Jordan river. But everyone is free to use it now.

    If you don’t like any of these just tell me and I’ll try to find some you like better.
