What about the loa of voodoo? There are certainly some of them that are actively worshiped by huge numbers of people, far more than the entire Greek/Roman, Norse, and Celtic pantheons put together. Legba, Erzulie, and the various death-associated entities all have very distinct images, too.
The interesting thing about them is that they were partially made out of beings worshipped in Catholicism. So they're sort of celestials converted into ethereals. Conceivably voodoo might legitimately be treated as another ethereal religion with some celestial powers.
