Cadmus as sower of discord as if it was like sowing dragonteeth is a 
good one, ( onl;y a few of the warriors sprouting from the teath 
survived their babybattle)
Antioch is the English for Antiochos and that name seems to mean 
stubborn, resistant.
A suitable name for the brother that was too stubborn to accept the 
death of a beloved and tried to resist her position by calling her 
back from the dead.
Ignotus is a bit of a cooked up name, not the most brillant piece of 
Rowlesk wordplay, but to replace it with Aidoneus, 
that sounds a bit as a mix of Aidan and Adonias; fire in Irish and 
lord in Hebrew, I think Ignotus is better.
