Just for fun (and because we're throwing around "hippy-ish" middle names to go with a more classic first name), tell me what names come to mind that are evocative of nature, but especially the ocean or sea...
(but I'll take any other naturey names as well!)
First name will be most likely be Adele and last name is 3 syllables and sounds like "Caretaker"
Re: "Nature-y" girl names
One of my best friends almost named her DD Ocean. She went with Brooke instead.
I love Arbor, Nova, and Briar.
Also Oakley, Iris, Fawn, Basil, Olive, Lotus, Lake, Petal, and Lark.
Brooke is pretty, and water related.
My favorite nature-y girl name is Summer.
I LOVE Adele! So classic and pretty. And I love the pairing of a traditional name with one that represents you.
Good luck!
