Xrib - God of the earth and patron of the Dwemer. Possibly the soul of Nir like how Akatosh is the soul of Anu and Sithis is the soul of Padomey.

Aldue - Akatosh

Julanax - Julanos

Meriden - Meridia

Iggilac - jyggilag

Clavicus - Clavicus vile

Trinimax - trinimac

Sheogur - Sheogorath (probably a devil figure since the dwarves love logic so much)

Shauza doom - Lorkhan (probably another devil figure since the Dwemer are elves)

Numidium ? Honestly I'm not even sure how much the Dwarves would acknowledge the existance fo the divines. I'd propose that they'd most likely worship someone like Peryite before Akatosh. I do love Sheogur as a devil figure. That's just too perfect to not be canon in my opinion. I'm also not sure about Trinimac. I just don't personally understand how he'd fit in to this pantheon. Aside from that I have to say I'm loving the idea of Pantheon made up of Peryite, Meridia, Jyggilag, and Clavicus Vile, opposing Sheogur.

That said, I don't think the Dwemer would view religion in the same way most folks do. To them the gods aren't something to look up to or aspire to be. They're something to be better than. To beat and surpass, (hence the Numidium). I think of it like this. Peryite is there to be conquered, Clavicus Vile is there to be outwitted, Sheogur is there to be forced into line, etc.
