The nine muses [Clio (History), Urania (Astronomy), Melpomene (Tragedy),
Thalia (Comedy),Terpsichore (Dance), Calliope (Epic Poetry), Erato (Love
Poetry),Polyhymnia (Songs to the Gods), Euterpe (Lyric Poetry)] should
leave lots of room for future expansion.
The 7 Pleiades would be another good choice: Alcyone, Asterope ,Electra,
Maia, Merope, Taygeta and Celaeno; Atlas and Pleione are their "father" and
"mother".
Good luck,
Stefan
