Sea gulls, despite their goofy appearance, are quite clever. I was trying to think of a name along those lines, and Slick popped out. Funny or awful, I thought I'd throw it out for consideration anyway!

I researched some scientific names relating to seagulls. Perhaps one of these might work for your new pet:

Larus
Laridae
Aves
Xema
Creagrus
Ichthyaetus
Saundersilarus

Other sea-worthy names that might be to your liking:

Ahab (Moby Dick reference)
Ishmael (Moby Dick reference)
Pequod (Moby Dick reference)
Andromeda
Halcyone
Ianthe
Aegeus
Albion
Caspian
Nereus
Pelagios

My mude swings like a pendul sometimes.. comes with being a woman i guess...

Requiem, i like this name.. so fare the only name im considering..well not true.. im considering some names from the move " Corpse bride",but emily (the corpse brides name) just dont sound sad... i like the sadness combined with fragile and beauty in the movie though...

Triste is awfull close to trist, danish for sad.. and trist.. well ist not sad enough tbh.. sometimes i just go deep down.. i suffer from depressions .. sadly

Albert Ross. That would work if you could have spaces. I'm trying to think of famous seagulls/albertrosses, so far I have Scuttle (The Little Mermaid) and Wilbur (from The Rescuers).
