Of the sea or sailors
Nautika is a modern American coinage derived from the English word 'nautical' and the Latin root 'nauticus.' It evokes a sense of maritime adventure and the vastness of the ocean. The name gained some visibility in the late 1990s and early 2000s, likely influenced by the popularity of the brand Nautica.
Fewer than 5 girls were named Nautika in 2025.
