Not for a transit system per se, but the ORCA farecard in Seattle has a mascot named Boop, who is an orca: https://info.myorca.com/news/meet-boop/

There's quite a precedent of sea-related names for transit fare cards. Hong Kong's Octopus, London's Oyster, San Francisco's Clipper... any others I've missed?
Wellington has the Snapper Card
Opal in Sydney
Opals aren't sea-related.
I would feel offended if they chose anything else lol. But the orca mascot is cute. Well done Seattle
