"Layla" was chosen for night and because it shares the same root with Lilith, Adam's first wife in Jewish tradition.
"Oren" was also intentional, as was Nessie's last name (Squires). Oren's name represents his steadfastness and solidity while Squires' represents her loyalty. The Arbocks, being a bunch of potential snakes in the grass, were named after the pokemon. Not quite as subtle.
Calidore's name comes from The Faerie Queene by Edmund Spenser, where he was a valiant knight trying to slay a monster called the Blatant Beast (His descriptor, The Thrillant Mage, uses vocab I pulled from Queene, too).
Astrea comes from a panegyric by John Dryden about the reign of Charles II called "Astraea Redux". It's all about the restoration of peace and the return of justice to the Earth.
Rebecca is Hebrew for "to tie, couple, or join", also for "to secure".
Ferrucio comes from Ferrum, the word for iron.
Pyramus is one half of the roman myth of two star-crossed lovers that directly inspired Romeo and Juliet. Most of the other names I chose for a reason but I just chose that one because it was cool.
