Nausikaa

Little Nausikaa will soon reach their very first safe harbor, the comfort of your arms. This feminine moniker has Greek origins and is spelled Nausicaa in Latin. You might recognize Nausicaa from Homer’s Odyssey, an ancient Greek epic poem. In this literary work, Nausicaa is the daughter of King Alcinous, who helps Odysseus on his journey home after a shipwreck. With such nautical connotations, it’s no surprise that Nausikaa means “burner of ships,” from the Greek elements naûs, meaning “ship,” and kaíō, meaning “to burn.” When it’s time for your Nausikaa to chase their dreams and embark on their own adventures, they’ll travel on smooth, gentle waters.
