• ABEL: From the Hebrew name "Hevel" or "Havel" which meant "breath". In the Old Testament he is the second son of Adam and Eve, murdered out of envy by his brother Cain. In England, this name came into use during the Middle Ages, and it was common during the Puritan era.
  • AERON: Variant of Aaron, which comes from the Hebrew name "Aharon" which is most likely of unknown Egyptian origin. Other theories claim a Hebrew derivation, and suggest meanings such as "high mountain", "exalted", "elevated" or "enlightened". Aeron is also the Welsh form of Agrona, derived from the old Celtic element agro meaning "battle, slaughter". This was the name of the Brythonic goddess of war and death.
  • ANDER: Form of the Greek name "Andreas", which was derived from "andreios" meaning "manly, masculine".
  • DARIUS: Roman form of "Dareios", which was the Greek form of the Persian name Dārayavahush, which was composed of the elements dâraya "to possess" and vahu "good". Three ancient kings of Persia bore this name.
  • DESTERY: English form of Destrier, a French surname derived from the Anglo-Norman word destrer meaning "warhorse".
  • GAVIN:
  • HERON: Derived from Greek heros meaning "hero".
  • JAYDEN:
  • JACE: Short form of Jason, from the Greek name "Iason", which was derived from Greek "iasthai" "to heal". In Greek mythology Jason was the leader of the Argonauts. After his uncle Pelias overthrew his father Aeson as king of Iolcos, Jason went in search of the Golden Fleece in order to win back the throne. During his journeys he married the sorceress Medea, who helped him gain the fleece and kill his uncle, but who later turned against him when he fell in love with another woman.
  • JARETH: Probably a blend of "Jared" and "Gareth". This was the name of the Goblin King, played by David Bowie, in the movie 'Labyrinth' (1986). Jared is from the Hebrew name "Yared" or "Yered" meaning "descent". This is the name of a close descendant of Adam in the Old Testament. Gareth is of unknown meaning. It first appears in this form in Thomas Malory's 15th-century compilation of Arthurian legends 'Le Morte d'Arthur', in which Gareth was a Knight of the Round Table, the brother of Sir Gawain. Malory based the name on Gahariet, which was the name of a similar Arthurian character in French sources. It may ultimately have a Welsh origin, possibly related to gwaredd meaning "gentleness".
  • MIDAS: In Greek myth Midas was a king of Phrygia in Asia Minor. He was granted a wish by the god Dionysos, that everything he touch be turned to gold.
  • NOCTIS: Latin for "Of the night"
  • OBERON: Variant of "Auberon", which is derived from "Alberich", the Germanic elements alf "elf" and ric "power". Alberich was the name of the sorcerer king of the dwarfs in Germanic mythology. Oberon was the king of the fairies in Shakespeare's comedy 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' (1595). A moon of Uranus bears this name in his honour.
  • PUCK: Meaning unknown, from Old English puca. It could ultimately be of either Germanic or Celtic origin. In English legend this was the name of a mischievous spirit, also known as Robin Goodfellow. He appears in Shakespeare's play 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' (1600).
