I’m issuing a challenge! Are there any space-related
names you know that are not on Nameberry? Some names I like: [name_f]Celestia[/name_f], [name_f]Crescentia[/name_f], and [name_f]Stella[/name_f]/Estella.

Brahaspathi (bruh - hus - peth - ee). Its the name of the one and only [name_f]Indian[/name_f] friend that I have. [name_f]My[/name_f] first impression of her was how stunning and exotic her name is. Its the name of a planet (can’t remember which) and I think its gorgeous albeit a bit hard to pronounce.

I’ll double check my list tomorrow morning. I have to be somewhere today and don’t know if I will have a chance to look through everything.

Callirrhoe is on nameberry, but I think it’s simply fantastic! Same with [name_m]Hesperos[/name_m].

The only one I have- Stelara/Stelaro. Stelaro is Esperanto meaning constellation. Derived from [name_f]Stella[/name_f], star.
I don’t know if that counts!

I’ve got a few more:

Caelestis “of the sky/heavenly” -I feel like it must be related to the [name_f]Celest[/name_f]- names. Wait, BtN is giving me the impression is may be where [name_f]Celeste[/name_f] as a name originates from.

Cepheus -constellation

Keid -a triple star system in the constellation Eridanus

I just recently found [name_u]Evren[/name_u], and I must say I like it more every day. Plus it’s unisex and literally means “universe”. Love the meaning, and it’s not as common like Stella or Luna
