Coincidentally, Castor Troy was also the name of the villain portrayed by Nicolas Cage in the movie Face/Off, one of the movie posters on That one of the twins was named Castor is possibly the reason why his class is Mage (Castor -> Cast). In Latin, the twins were also known as the Gemini, of course.

It is also the phenomenon which, by mythology, the twins preside over as gods. Elmo's Fire, which, like Sollux's psionics, is an electrical emanation that appears as a colored aura around the affected object. Additionally, Pollux and Castor is an archaic name for St. Pollux and Castor were also the names of two characters in the movie Face/Off, a Nicolas Cage flick that came out the same year as Con Air and one that John Egbert has a poster of in his room. Castor and Pollux were famous mythological twins, which is where Gemini - Latin for 'twins' - gets its name. It is also worth noting that Pollux is a red giant, while Castor is bluish white, complementing the red/blue duality theme. If one would switch the S and P in his name it becomes 'Pollux Castor.' Pollux and Castor are the two brightest stars in the constellation of Gemini. As such, his name would literally mean 'Sunlight Catcher'. Sollux rather transparently divides into 'sol-lux', the Latin words for 'sun' and 'light', respectively. Incidentally, the word 'mage' is in the word 'armageddons'.

This is meant to convey that he speaks with a bit of a lisp, possibly a reference to the programming language LISP. When typing, he doubles all of his 'i's (as a probable reference to the appearance of the Gemini sign, as well as the fact that 'II' is two in Roman numerals), as well as replacing 's' with '2' and 'to' and 'too' with 'two'. His associated zodiac sign is Gemini ( :gemini: ) and he has two horns on each side of his head, as the number two is a theme for him, because of his relations to Gemini.
