If you think about the coconut girl aesthetic in terms of fashion, it’s bright, breezy, and chill; it’s a mix of bold floral prints (think a Lilly Pulitzer dress!), crocheted tops, and accessories rarely seen since the late ’90s and early ’00s — like puka shell necklaces, woven friendship bracelets, and bucket hats. And if you could bottle up all this carefree, optimistic, playful energy and put it into a name, it would be these: beachy baby girl names that perfectly capture that “coconut girl” spirit.Report ad

So put on your snorkel and let’s do a deep dive into some of our favorite names — so sunny and bright that you’re gonna need some extra SPF.

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Ocean

Ocean

Nature names are perennially popular, and especially where it pertains to water: look at all the Rivers, Brooks, and Lakyns out there! Out of all of these, Ocean is no doubt the beachiest — after all, there wouldn’t be a beach without an ocean! It’s beautiful, powerful, mysterious, and calming all at the same time. If Ocean is a little too literal, you could go with the elegant-sounding Océane (oh-see-ahn), inspired by the French word for ocean!Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Aura

Aura

Aura is derived from the Greek word αὔρα, meaning “breeze” — and the definition of aura, according to Oxford Dictionary, is “the distinctive atmosphere or quality that seems to surround and be generated by a person, thing, or place.” The name has a cool meaning, the word has a cool meaning, and both are perfect for the breezy-casual vibe of the beach.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Sola

Sola

Some sources say that Sola comes from a Japanese kanji meaning “sky,” which is makes it a perfect beachy baby girl name. It also sounds a lot like soleil, the French word for “sun,” but is a little less fancy — more of a laid-back beach vibe.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Breezy

Breezy

There’s no mistaking the meaning of Breezy! Toes in the sand, wind in your hair, the salty smell of the ocean borne on the warm summer breeze. Basically, it evokes the blissful feeling of beach life. And Bree is a super-cute and upbeat-sounding nickname!Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Capri

Capri

Capri calls to mind the picturesque coastline and exquisite beaches of the Italian island of the same name. Its actual meaning is a little less gorgeous — it’s either from a Greek word meaning “wild boar” or from a Latin word meaning “goats” — but we think its glamorous and breezy sound makes up for that.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Coral

Coral

In the United States, 103 baby girls were named Coral last year, according to the most recent data from the U.S. Social Security Administration. Derived from the Greek word korallion, it refers to the beautiful ocean reefs that are critical to the ecosystem (and a breathtaking sight to boot!). If this feels a little too nature-inspired to you, you can always go with Cora or Coraline — but those alternatives, though pretty, feel less beachy and more vintage.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Kailani

Kailani

You simply can’t get beachier than Kailani, which is a combination of the Hawaiian elements “kai” (meaning ocean or sea) and “lani” (meaning sky). And this melodious name is really catching on; in 2016, Kailani sat at #965 out of the top 1000 most popular baby names in the U.S. Now, it has skyrocketed to #223 — and a spelling variant, Kehlani, is even more popular at #152.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Isla

Isla

In Spanish, the word isla means “island,” which is perfect for the coconut girl vibe. But the Spanish word is pronounced EES-la, whereas this name — Isla — is pronounced EYE-la. And as a name, Isla’s meaning is a little bit different; it’s actually derived from the Scottish name Islay, which is an island off its west coast. Still, whether it’s Scotland or the tropics, an island is an island!Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Aelia

Photo : SheKnows

Aelia

Pronounced EE-lia, this rare gem of a girl name has a history dating all the way back to ancient Rome! It’s from a Roman family name that likely came from the Greek word for sun, helios. And nothing says “beachy” like the sun!Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Callista

Callista

The name Callista is derived from the Greek name Kallistos — which means “most beautiful.” Cali would be an adorable nickname, adding to the beachy vibe.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Roxy

Photo : SheKnows

Roxy

Like Band-Aids and Kleenex and Google, some brands just become household names after a while — and Roxy is a baby name that is forever synonymous with a surf and lifestyle brand that’s been around since 1991. The name itself is actually a version of an Old Persian name which means “bright” or “dawn” … but its spunky vibe and association with the surf and beach apparel brand makes it the perfect “coconut girl” name.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Kaya

Photo : SheKnows

Kaya

While the sound of this name definitely fits in with the beachy aesthetic we’re going for, its meaning isn’t necessarily summery; it’s an alternate spelling of Kaia, the Norwegian diminutive of Katrina, which means “pure.” But hey, lying on the beach is pure bliss, so there you go!Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Summer

Summer

When it comes to names that embody — well, summer, this one’s a bit of a no-brainer! Its inherent warmth and relaxed feel could make even a winter-born baby seem ready for a beach towel and a tropical drink.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Cali

Photo : SheKnows

Cali

You could say that the name Cali is an alternate spelling of Callie, which comes from Caroline; which comes from Carolus, the Latin version of Charles; which means “man”. But when it comes to beachy baby girl names, we say that the name Cali is simply an homage to California, which epitomizes that laid-back surfer vibe!Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Marin

Photo : SheKnows

Marin

This lovely name, stemming from the Latin word marinus meaning “from the sea,” is an updated take on the more dated Marina (although that’s a perfectly fine name too!). Adding to its beachy meaning is the association with Marin County, an area along the coast of Northern California.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Coco

Photo : SheKnows

Coco

In Spanish, it means “coconut” — so Coco is quite literally a coconut girl name! It’s simple yet spunky, just like the aesthetic itself. But thanks to Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel, founder of the iconic Chanel luxury fashion house, it also has a glam association too.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Dylan

Photo : SheKnows

Dylan

Though the name Dylan traditionally skews male, it’s one of those names that’s just so wearable on any gender. When it’s used for a girl, it gives a chill, go-with-the-flow, up-for-anything vibe. Plus, in Celtic legend, Dylan was a god of the sea; its Welsh roots come from the word for “tide” and some sources say it means “son of the sea” — so its meaning is perfect, too!Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Lani

Photo : SheKnows

Lani

Often seen as part of longer names like Kailani and Noelani, Lani (pronounced LAH-nee) is of Hawaiian origin and means “sky” or “heaven”. And though the longer names are gorgeous, we think Lani is perfect all on its own!Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Brisa

Photo : SheKnows

Brisa

The name Breeze is beachy perfection, but if that’s a little too hippie-esque for your taste, we’ve got a very cute alternative: Brisa! It’s literally the Spanish word for Breeze, and a fresh take on popular names like Bree.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Sunny

Photo : SheKnows

Sunny

Just like Breeze (or Brisa!), Sunny is a beachy baby girl name that epitomizes the key ingredient of a perfect day by the shore. It’s got a warm, friendly, and outgoing vibe.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Noa

Photo : SheKnows

Noa

The name Noa is most familiar for its Hebrew roots, where it means “motion”; in the Bible’s Old Testament, Noa is one of the five daughter of Zelophehad. And of course, there’s Noah-with-an-h. But without the h-ending, Noa has an almost Hawaiian feel — probably thanks to its sound, which is common in Hawaiian names like Kainoa and Nakoa. And in Japanese, when written using certain kanji, Noa can mean “love”.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Destin

Photo : SheKnows

Destin

As a name, Destin likely stems from the French destin, meaning “fate”. But where its beachiness factor is concerned, we’re looking at a much different geological location — Florida! Destin, Florida is a popular destin-ation (see what we did there?) known for its gorgeous beaches that fringe the Gulf of Mexico.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Rio

Photo : SheKnows

Rio

Okay, so Rio doesn’t actually refer to an ocean; the word rio actually means “river” in Spanish. But you’ve got to admit that its spunky, spirited, vibe fits in perfectly with the effortlessly-cool essence of beachy baby names.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Marisol

Photo : Marisol

Marisol

Get ready for the absolute beachiest of beachy baby girl names, because Marisol means … sea and sun. Perfect, right?! It comes from the Spanish words mar y sol, and we can’t think of anything better than that combo. Plus, Mari is a cute nickname!Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Hana

Photo : SheKnows

Hana

In Japanese, this beautiful name means “flower” — but add an O to the first part of it, and you’ve got ohana, which is the Hawaiian term for family.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Naia

Photo : SheKnows

Naia

Of Basque origin, the name Naia means “wave” or “sea foam” — and it’s a great alternative to the super-popular Maia (or Maya), which is rising up the ranks of the top 1000 most popular baby names and is almost in the top 50.Report ad

Beachy Baby Girl Names: Skye

Photo : SheKnows

Skye

You could go with regular old Sky for this homage to the heavens, or you could add the “e” at the end as we’ve done here, which makes it seem less like a word and more like a name. Either way, nature names are hot right now — and while this one fits year-round, it seems particularly summery.
