Can you please help me with chữ nôm (Ancient Vietnamese) ??

I am looking for the chữ nôm characters for my name: Hải Ly

I am a girl and would love to get my name tattoo’d to respect to my heritage.
I am Half Chinese Half Vietnamese

In Vietnamese it is written as:    Hải Ly

It is a mixture of Hai which is the Chinese word for “OCEAN”
and Ly from the Vietnamese word Ly hương “TO LEAVE ONES HEARTLAND”

Can anyone please help me get the chữ nôm characters for my name ??

♥♥♥♥
