Marée Origin and Meaning

Marée is a feminine name with French origins, meaning 'tide' or 'sea tide.' This elegant, nature-inspired name reflects the rhythmic movement of ocean waters and carries associations with fluidity, strength, and natural beauty. The accent mark gives the name a distinctly French aesthetic and pronunciation (mah-RAY), adding sophistication and musical quality. While uncommon in English-speaking countries, Marée has maintained modest usage in French-speaking regions. The name appeals to parents drawn to water imagery and French linguistic traditions.
