Oceanis is Latin in Origin.
Oceanis derives from Ancient Greek Ὠκεανίς (Okeanís), the term for an Oceanid - one of the sea nymphs, daughters of the Titan Oceanus and Tethys. It ultimately shares roots with Greek Ὠκεανός (Okeanós), Latin Oceanus, and the English word ocean, conveying “of the ocean,” “sea-born,” or “belonging to the great encircling waters.” In myth, Oceanus personified the vast world-river surrounding the earth, lending the name a sense of boundlessness and primordial depth.
Though unattested as a personal name in antiquity, Oceanis has emerged in recent decades as a rare, modern nature-and-myth choice, used mostly in English-speaking contexts and in creative naming influenced by French Océane. It is commonly perceived as feminine but functions as unisex. Related forms and variants include Okeanis (direct transliteration), Oceanus (masculine mythic form), Océane/Oceane, Oceana, Oceania, and Ocean.
Oceanis is exceptionally rare. There are only 3 recorded uses on record, spread over 3 countries.
