A question, my thoughts, and a long list ;-)
in reply to a message by Lillian
How are you pronouncing Nyx? I much prefer the Greek pronunciation of NEEKS.
I like (because I'm obsessed with Greek names and prefer them used together):
Persephone Nyx --I like Nyx Persephone better because I don't like the nee sounds together
Sapphira Nyx --I love this and it may be my favorite on your list
Zephyra Nyx --I also love this.
Nyx Athena --I really like this.
Nyx Calista --I like this, but prefer Kallista (also Greek, just not in the database).
Nyx Elektra --I love this, especially since it is the Greek spelling.
Nyx Elena --I love this.
Nyx Larissa --I also love this, but then Larissa is my all-time favorite girls' name. ;-)

holy cow!
What a list! I can't begin to decide which ones I like best! Although Kleopatra Nyx certainly leaps out - great idea! And I really like Nyx Angelike, the Greek spelling makes it that much better. =D
Have to admit, I'm using the Americanized Nicks prn, though Neeks is growing on me.
Thanks for so many wonderful ideas! I'm going to have to take an afternoon to plow through them all - and I look forward to doing just that. Thanks again. :-)
