Nyx

• (like nicks) because, first of all, she was a lesser goddess of night and darkness in greek mythology, and also because it works with some of the longer last and middle names out there.
• short and quite unusual for a girl.  Also i think she is a goddess of nightmares and is the personification of feminine darkness which is pretty cool!
