Ohr
Ori
Uri
Uriel
Maohr
Elior
Ohrel
Nissim (old man's name in my community)
Maoz or Tzur
I think נריה is a boys name, bit not sure how it is pronounced, and it would be unusual
There's also Nir, but I dont like it.

We have friends who named their son Maoz because he was born on Chanukah.
Oriel or Uriel
Matityahu
Shraga (means candle in Aramaic)

As far as I know, Nir means a plowed field (ready to be planted).

Correct.
Once met Israeli walking dog.
He introduced himself as Nir.
Asked the dog’s name.
It was Gershon.
So you are Nir and dog is Gershon?
Uuuum, that is still a head scratcher to me...
To each his own, lol.
But your translation is right.

The Chanukah boys names are gorgeous. Here are the typical yeshivish accepted ones, Im sure there are more but so many nice to choose from...
Mattisyahu
Yehuda
Yonasan
Yochanan
Shimon
Eliezer
Meir
And a bit out of the box-Alexander (can be called Sendy etc)
Nissim (used more in Sefardi circles)
Etc...
Bshaah Tova!

My son’s bris was on Chanukah, his name is Hillel Yehuda.
Hillel has the Chanukah connection because we light like Bais Hillel (increasing in light).
Yehuda because Yehuda HaMaccabee (and also the basic meaning of thanking HaShem)
Together: in HaNeiros Hallalu, we say “l’hodos u’lehallel” which has the roots of both those names.
My son now has a menorah with the words “l’hodos u’lehallel” and feels like it’s very much “his”.
