Here is a link to the "name themes" page on this site. There is a category for Astronomy and Astrology names that you can look through. http://www.behindthename.com/themes.phpAs for video games names, that is a huge and broad category. I would need to know what type of video games, etc. I suggest you just google it. As for Nactovah, it certainly looks made up. While not horrendous, it is a bit grating since the letter combos and the overall sound seems disjointed and unrealistic. The full sound comes off as Russian or another Easter European dialect... while the elements of the name separetely are much softer and could be linked to Middle Eastern or Southern European roots. Nacht does mean "night" in german... and Tovah is Hebrew, meaning "good"... though it seems unusual to pair German and Hebrew linguistics together for a name. If you want something to mean "good night", I suggest something like:Eunyx - This is made up from the Greek elements 'eu' for "good" and 'nyx' for "night". Sunisha - Sanskrit element 'su', which means "good" and "nisha", which is the Sanskrit word for "night". Kaya - A combination of Japanese elements 'ya' for night and 'ka', which means "fine" or "good". Hope that helps!

-----Alright -----I had a dream last night with a lion cub name Nactovah, nn Natava, it was so cuteAs for Nactovah, it certainly looks made up.
----I believe i kind of made it up,not really, theya re already in a language, it's kind of a hybrid name.. I squished two words together so guilties While not horrendous, it is a bit grating since the letter combos and the overall sound seems disjointed and unrealistic. -----Grating is good sometimes,
personally I think sounds alright, but I have german on both side of the family, but none speak german ,I have only took german in hs a long time ago...other ancesters include London, england, french?, Norway, Scotch, irish,czech, maybe a drop of native american, ah just call smooshie when asked what my culture countries are.The full sound comes off as Russian or another Easter European dialect... while the elements of the name separetely are much softer and could be linked to Middle Eastern or Southern European roots.-------Cool, I appreciate your response and critique, of my made up names.Nacht does mean "night" in german... and Tovah is Hebrew, meaning "good"... though it seems unusual to pair German and Hebrew linguistics together for a name. If you want something to mean "good night", I suggest something like:------hmm Isn't german and hebrew mix language called yiddish or something, I could be wrong...Eunyx - This is made up from the Greek elements 'eu' for "good" and 'nyx' for "night".

yes. Yiddish is a language spoken by Jews that contains German dialectal elements and Hebrew words. But, it's mostly a combination of words... not really a mashing of the two languages. I suppose if you like the sounds, it could work for you with Nachtovah... but something that softens it up (like Natovah or Nachtov) would be better on the ear. I love the prefix Eu - but I prefer it in softer names like Eudora and Eustace. Eunuch is a reasonable association to Eunyx though. Didn't catch that. Though, Eunuchs were pretty highly regarded people, especially in Hebraic culture, as they usually held high positions. Chaia is totally usable, but it means "life" so it might defeat your purposes. Simcha means "joy" in hebrew if you are open to more uplifting names.
