There's no word that specifically means "ocean princess", just like you're not likely to find that phrase in the dictionary. However, you can stick it together in two ways. "Umi-hime" is somewhat formal. For instance, if Ocean Princess is someone's title, you might call them as such. Umi means ocean, and when it's followed by -hime, hime becomes a title, like Ms. or Mr.; in this case, Princess Ocean. If you want to say ocean princess as a common noun instead of a proper noun, you would say "umi no hime", which, loosely translated, means "princess of the ocean." "No" is somewhat like the Spanish "de", used mostly for "of" but having many other meanings. It's a particle that denotes that the previous word is the subject and that the following word belongs to the first. It can usually be thought of as similar to the possessive " 's" of English.
