A friend has asked me to plant something in our garden, in memory of
her daughter who died recently. (Lovely idea). The garden is coastal,
sunny and windy with a mild winter climate. Can anyone recommend any
plants (not trees) suited to that situation, named Caroline?

The only one that immediately springs to mind is a Rose called Caroline
Victoria which may fit the bill.
A few bits and pieces about it on Google.
Do roses thrive in your area?

There's a lilac-pink Campanula glomerata named Caroline.

And Lockyers list a Fuchsia Caroline, although it's a half hardy
variety.
