Mermaid names for boys contain the mystery and might of the sea. Mermaids are legendary ocean beings that inhabit the waves, and people around the world continue to be fascinated by them and their stories. Before you wade into our list of boy mermaid names, get to know some of our favorites with us.
As sea-dwellers, it isn’t a surprise that mermaid names for boys frequently have a tie to the ocean. A few monikers come from bodies of water, like Ocean and Bay. And while these are undeniably fitting for a mermaid, we can see them wearing well on a boy who will grow up beside the sea. Blue is another contender, as the deep blue sea has no color more prevalent than it. Blue feels fun and playful, similar to how some mermaids are depicted in legends. You can find Sander and Marlin, too.
Mermaid names for boys might hide their ocean ties within their meanings. Rinus, for example, is a Latin pick meaning “of the sea.” Delmar is a handsome Spanish choice that shares the same meaning. For something more simple, there’s Kai, meaning “sea.” You can also find Marinus and Mariner.
Mermaid names for boys can have place origins. Atlantic has obvious ties to a certain ocean, but he also has a powerful sound that suits a strongman. Pacifico has a similar styling, though his O ending has an extra flair of oomph. Atlantis is another awesome find, and his association with the lost underwater city takes him to new heights.
Sea gods are the most common mermaid names for boys in modern entertainment. Triton is the most famous find, as this god of the sea appears in legends and as the father in the Little Mermaid. Poseidon and Neptune are other sea gods you can see on mermaids.
Dive deep into our list of mermaid names for boys and see what you can find.
