Celestial/Starry names for boys? Orion, Alastar?

So my name is Skye, and I love the sky and especially ancient myth, and astrology...

It would be really wonderful if I could find a name that is kind of starry for a boy, but not like Comet, or Star or something.

I love Orion, but our last name is Walden so I think that wouldn't work because they sound similar.
I love Alastar/Alastair/Alasdair but my hubby's name is Alex and I think they sound too similar.

Any other ideas? Names of constellations, moons or names that mean that in another language? Other than these names, the only ones we can come up for are Finn and Biblical ones like Elijah/Ezra/Isaiah/Issac, etc. So those are our tastes, more or less.

Thanks a bunch!
 
Virgo? I like the other person's idea about using a sign name. Orion Walden sounds fine, I think. Orion or Leo are probably your best options.
P.S- I love the name Skye!
 
Love Isaac!

Alastar/Alastair/Alasdair are lovely they are actually the Scottish form of Alexander. To be honest I think Alex & Alastar/Alastair/Alasdair sound fine togather and it means you are getting Star in his name but he will also be named after his father.
