Nepheline

Whether a daydreamer or truth seeker, Nepheline reminds us that sometimes it's good to have your head in the clouds. Nepheline is a feminine name inspired by the mineral used in glass and ceramics. A cool and ear-catching alternative to Nephele, Nepheline stems from the Greek word nephos plus the suffix -ine and translates to "cloudy," "of a cloud," and "cloud-like." Light on its feet, Nepheline has a sweet airiness to it that may fuel a vivid imagination. Nepheline comes in a range of colors and formations, from blue to white, grey, and even pale yellow. If gazing up at the clouds and pointing out funny shapes is something you look forward to doing with your child, you might find Nepheline to be the perfect choice.
