Hellen is a male name in Greek mythology. There's also Helenus.
For meaning-related names: Helen probably means "torchlight", which is often translated to mean simply "light" or occasionally "sun ray" (i.e. the light from the sun). Therefore, these names would suit your purposes:
Bhaskar - "Shining" (literally, "light making")
