Isildur means 'Servant/lover/friend of the Moon' I think, and The Lords of Andunië had a thing for naming their children with names like Valandil 'Servant/lover/friend of the Valar' and stuff like that. Minas Ithil, Isildur's city, also means 'Tower of the Moon' and the fief Isildur ruled from it was called Ithillien. The same applied for Anárion his brother except with Anor (sun).
