Thanks!This is my kind of This of That. Thanks!
Erebus or Scotus
Aion or Aeternitas
Ananke or Necessitas
Hemera or Dies -Hermera just reminds me of Humira. Thanatos or Mors -Even though it definitely makes me think of Thanos.
Uranus/Ouranos or Caelus
Coeus or Polus
Rhea or Ops Eos or Aurora
Leto or Latona -Leto used to be in my Top Ten
Gaia or Terra
Aidos or Pudicitia -that was like choosing the best garbage pile.Apate or Fraus
Deimos or Metus
Dolos or Mendacius -The Scandinavians really beat both the Greeks and Romans here, didn't they?
Eirene or PaxEleos or Clementia -love both actually
Euthenia or Abundantia
Geras or Senectus
Hedone or Voluptas -Despite knowing the Eros and Psyche story quite well, I had never heard of her as Hedone. I have only ever previously seen her named Beroe. (I have said if I ever get married, my wedding will be themed Eros and Psyche. It's such a cool story.) Anyway, I looked up this name for her now and it's much more appropriate. Thanks for introducing me to it.Aergia or Socordia
Lyssa or Ira
Oizys or Miseria
Peitho or Suada

An "Eros and Psyche"-themed wedding would be pretty awesome, in my opinion. Go for it!
