http://www.jrrvf.com/hisweloke/sindar/online/sindar/dict-sd-en.html'Sil' comes from the root 'silima' meaning 'shine' (especially white or silver light).Silver does not have a meaning in Quenya.Sindarin:
Orithil - Day of the moon
Cýron - New moon
Ithil - "moon"
Ithildin - silver-coloured substance mirrors only starlight & moonlight
Celeb (KELEB) - noun; "silver"
Celebrin (KELEB-reen) - "like silver"
Celebrían (kele-BREE-an) - "silver queen"Quenya:
Silmariën (seel-MAR-ree-en)
Tinwë (TEEN-way) - "sparkle"
Tingilindë (teen-gee-LEEN-day) - "twinkling star"
Elen (ELEN) - noun; "star"
Telpë (TEL-pay) - "silver"
Ilsa (EEL-sa) - "silver" (mystic name)
Nillë / Ngillë (NEE-lay?) - "silver glint"
Silmë (SEEL-may) - "silver"? "light of Silpion"/"starlight"?

Let me try this...
Well, here's a few ideas and Elvish words that may have something to do with moon or silver. If I were you, I'd work a few words together to suit your taste.
If you're a girl, any name can have -wen or -iel added to the end of any of them because those are the common suffixes for female Elvish names.English Word- Elvish Word (pronunciation)Gleam- Ril (rill)
Gleam(2)- Glin (gleen)
Moon- Ithil (ith-ill)
Moonlight- Silme (seel-may)
Radiance- Alata (all-ah-tah)
Silver- Celeb (kehl-ehb) (Ex. Celeborn)You mentioned Sea. I don't know if you want Elvish sea words or not, but here if so:
Sea- Aear (eye-are)
Spray- Wing (wihng)
Foam- Ros (rohs)
Foam(2)- Falf (fahlf)
Sand- Lith (leeth) Other water words:
Water- Nen (nehn)
Blue- Malina (mah-leen-ah)
Grey- Mith (meeth)
Isle- Tol (toll)
Wet- Mesc (mehsk)
Rain- Ross (rohss)
River- Duin (do-in)
Stream- Sîr (sear)
Well- Mae (my)
Wells- Eithel (ay-thell) If this is nothing you like, this site also translates many female names into Elivsh by meaning.
