Ashwin and Ariston
Ashwin sort of just came to mind the other day and though I've never actually heard of it it seems there is a background http://www.behindthename.com/submit/name/ashwin and now I'm kind of loving it. WDYT?
Also how do you like Ariston?

Ashwin seems like two words smushed together.
I like Ariston, but actually prefer Aristos what with –ton names being so trendy.

Interesting...
The sound of Ashwin is throwing me a bit because I'm hearing "Schwinn", the bicycle brand, and I'm seeing circling spokes. I generally like "-win" names and the meanings associated with this are appealing. I think I could warm to it.
Does "Ar" of Ariston rhyme with "air" or "car" (I'm stressing the first syllable as with Aniston)? Sound-wise I think I prefer "air". Visually, it reminds me of "aristocrat".
ETA: I just finished your "Ten Names" a few minutes ago and it was a fun list. Two other people also had Isra on their lists but I didn't come up with a combo I really liked until I was inspired by the meanings of your other names, so thanks. :)
