Thanks again, Mike!
Thanks again, Mike!
A few I liked...
Acteon: More common form: Aktaios (m), dweller of a shore or coast (from Greek Akte, shore)
Acantha (f), Greek for thorn, prickle.
Adonia (f), Female version of Adonis .
Agathon (m), Male version of Agatha .
Amalthea (f), Amaltheia was the goat which nursed Zeus . From her horn flowed whatever its possessor wished, hence "keras Amaltheias", "horn of plenty." (My favorite french expression: Il lui donna la corne de l'abondance, et elle lui donna l'abondance des cornes!" -- loses a bit in the translation hehe)
Arachne (f), Greek for Spider. For more on Arachne, see http://www.pantheon.org/articles/a/arachne.html
Aretina (f), Diminutive of Arete, Greek for "virtue"

A few stellar names for Mike which I especially liked...
Aludra (f) "the maiden" (Arabic). Name given to a star in the constellation of Canis Major. From "Al Adhra", the singular form of "Al Adhara".
Astrophel (m) "lover of a star". Literary name coined by Sir Philip Sidney (1554-1586) for his character in love with STELLA in his sonnets titled "Astrophel and Stella".
And another Canis Major star name I'm adding to this list, because they make great dog-names:
Adhara (f) "the maidens" (Arabic). Name given to the second-brightest star, after Sirius, in the constellation of Canis Major. From "Al Adhara". See ALUDRA.

Licia
Talking about stellar K9s, another cool name would be:
Licia / Lycia / Lykaia (f) From the Greek "Lyke" meaning morning twilight...
Hate to sound Artistic, but names such as Licia evoke musical imagery...Bach, for example...
