When it comes to naming your baby, maybe you are looking for something which is unique as well as with a familiar and cool meaning. Our minds think as the environment, weather or other element surrounding us. I have seen many moms name their baby with a meaning of rain as she born in a rainy day or rainy season. It’s appreciable because rain is something that makes people happy and recalls memory. Like that summer is also a state of mind. In the dead heat of summer, you may want something cool, refreshing like water. Many parents like to name their baby as refreshing one. Let our water names like Aberforth or Bay be the perfect name for your baby boy or girl. We did some research on the internet about ocean, river and water themed names and make a long list of both male and female names based on water-related meanings. Take a look at the other names of water in different languages and select one:
