There is no common equivalent in English for Idonius--it is one of those names from Latin that has been preserved in the Romance languages (i.e., Ital., Idonio) but has not made a transition into English. However, the word 'idoneous' has, meaning fitting, suitable or appropriate. A couple of casual suggestions: because American English is somewhat flexible in its' naming conventions, just use either the original 'Idonius' or 'Idonio' as an intentionally exotic name; cut down the name to 'Idon' which might be a little unusual but has a more "English sound" since it ends in an 'n'; or find a common English name such as 'Don' (for 'Donald') which has a similarity to 'Idonius' but is familiar to English-speakers. Hope this helps.
