Night Themed Names

I am trying to make a new themed UC based around names with night or night-related meanings, and I would love to have an even number of boys and girls combos. Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be anywhere near as many night names for boys.

I currently have Leo, Orion, Apollo, Sirius, Orpheus, Mars, Saturn, Astrophel and Jupiter. If you know any more night names for boys would you be able to suggest some for me please?

Not positive how wearable it is, but Erebus was the god of darkness and consort to [name_u]Nyx[/name_u] (goddess of night).
