Aurum
"Aurum" in latin is gold. I give it this nickname because i think that it resembles a golden spirit and because lions are associated with "highly idealistic and prized attributes of gold"

Sky
Whenever I think of Shinx I think of Pokémon Explorers of Sky. I was a Shinx on my first play through. His sprite has a blue that somewhat resembles "Sky Blue" which gave me the idea in the first place. Shinx is an electric type which immediately makes me think of Thunder & Lightning. In a storm you can see lightning bolts flash in the sky which ties to his typing. Shinx resembles a lion in some aspects. I believe this is because the name Shinx resembles Sphinx. Sphinxes have the body of a lion as well as having wings to traverse the sky. On his tail (and his ears) is a star with 4 points. Stars shine in the sky so having a star on a Pokémon named "Sky" sounded nice to me. Shinx is my favorite Pokémon now so I am glad I put a lot of time into his nickname the first time I caught one. The name "Sky" sounds really cheerful so I thought it fit Shinx's personality in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games.

Denki is Japanese for "Electric" Or "Electricity. I chose this name because A. I love Japanese things, and B. Shinx is my Favourite Pokemon, so I put them together and got this.

Even though this was submitted for Luxray, I think it suits a Shinx more. The nickname also references that it's an Electric type, so it's quite fitting.

Libraiase
LEE-BRA-IAS. I picked this name because when I hear the word "Libra" I think of a cat, and Shinx is like a lion, which is a cat. (A Libra is a cat right? 0.o)

The majority of Libras that I have met have been cats in personality, yes. I'll allow Libra for the nickname, you've tried to sexify it however and it's not worked.

As in to cause a system to start or stop working by moving a switch, Shinx seem like the type to break things. Or maybe it's just clumsy ;)

If by mysterious you mean "Yes, this person is clearly going to pee on us if we get too close, best wander over there where she can't see us", then yes.
