First off, even if our Pluto and Charon are this timeline's moons of Venus, it is highly unlikely that they would be named Pluto and Charon.  Assuming that they aren't discovered until Galileo starts to scan the sky with his telescope, then one possible pair of names would be Lucifer and Vesper, which are the Latin names for the Morning Star and Evening Star respectively before the Ancients realized that they were the same celestial object.
