Im having difficulty finding names I like. I need two - three names that roll off the tongue and wouldn't be out of place with a long hyphenated surname.

No religious names

No surnames

No places

Nothing that rhymes with Aden

Upvote good suggestions otherwise post ones. Bonus points if it's a sci-fi name.

Edit: lots of good suggestions, but I think I'm going with 'Wash'.

My kids are hyphenated too; consider the rhythm of the name while you are choosing, the accents - mine all ended up with some 5 syllable combination of first & middle name to fit a 4 syllable last name because of the pleasant sound. My thoughts, since you like sci fi, break some of your rules but not obvious I think. Mostly I think 3 syllables will probably work better, maybe 2 but a very short name will not stand up to a long last name! Say the whole name together when you are choosing.

Jean-Luc

Constantine

Artemis

Necdet

Lucasinho

Cassian

I also really like @SethranKada@lemmy.ca list, those are solid, good sounding, conventional enough but not boring.
