how about some Bahamian name? something that denotes something of the Islands? I also like "Neeta" (short for Bonita)

from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bahamas

Originally inhabited by the Lucayans, a branch of the Arawakan-speaking Taino people, the Bahamas were the site of Columbus' first landfall in the New World in 1492.

I like the sound of the name of this Island
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleuthera

eleutheria means "freedom" in Greek, while Ἐλευθερά eleuthera means "free".

She looks kind of caramel colored...
