My friend wants to know his name ^
Whats my Greek name if my Name is Dalton Foster?
Well there's no Greek equivalent of that name but if you want to spell it in Modern Greek it's 螡蟿维位蟿慰谓 桅蠈蟽蟿蔚蟻 (Ntalton Foster) There is no single letter in Modern Greek for 'd', you combine N and T to make the sound.

What is the name of this greek myth?
I'm writing an essay tonight and I need to know what the name of this myth is:
Its about these two humans who fall in love. One of them dies, and the other is so sad he travels to Olympus and prays to the gods for her return. They grant his wish on one condition: he must not look behind him on his journey back to earth. IF he does, she will vanish forever.
Then, he up and looks behind him.
What is the name of this? Please help!
What is the name of this greek myth?
It's about Orpheus, the musician and his wife is Eurydice, a nymph.
Orpheus and Eurydice
Reply:I think I might be able to help here. By your other thread and by the other answers, you clearly know that it is Orpheus and Eurydice.
However in the myth he is so grief stricken he goes to Hades to ask for her release, not to Olympus to ask for her return. One of the crucial parts of the story was that he heard footsteps behind him but when he stopped the footsteps stopped. He thought Hades had pulled a trick on him and angrily turned around to go back and confront him only to see the misty figure of his wife disappear.
It might be easier to find sources that agree with that interpretation than the Olympus one.
Reply:Orpheus and Eurydice.

My younger brothers name is Andrew, my mum HATES 'Andy' so nobody ever called him that. When he got a bit older he didn't mind people calling him Andy so his mates and stuff did, but nobody in our family or family friends has ever called him that.
Just let people know when he is born that his name is Elias and not Eli.
Nice choice on the name btw, thats a name I have throughout my family and I love it!
Reply:no i wouldn't because i'm not a fan of nicknames. a name is a name for a reason, i see no point in shortening it!

In Greek mythology, what was the name of the mother of Phaeton?
Phaeton was the son of Helios. His father granted him one wish, and this was to drive the sun chariot across the sky. Phaeton lost control of the horses and brought the sun dangerously close to earth so, to avoid a catastrophe, Zeus sent a thunderbolt and killed him.
I heard this story a while ago and I just can't remember the name of Phaeton's mother, nor what became of her after Phaeton's death. Can anyone help please?
In Greek mythology, what was the name of the mother of Phaeton?
In the following source the mother of Phaeton is given as Klymene..
The genealogy of Phaeton, however, is not the same for all writers. This site also gives other possible mothers in the encyclopedia paragraph. Other possible names are Oceanid Clymene, Merope, Prote, and Rhode. Perhaps one of these names will be familiar to you for an answer to your question.
After Phaethon fell to his death from the chariot of the sun , Klymene roamed the world to find his lifeless limbs and then his bones, and found his bones at last buried beside a foreign river-bank. And, prostrate there, she drenched in tears his name carved in the marble and hugged it to her breast . . .

What is the meaning of the Greek name Nyleptha?
Sorry no Nyleptha in Greek names registry; the closest I came is--Phthia (Greek: 桅胃委伪 or 桅胃委畏 transliterations:, modern: Fthii, ancient: Phth铆膿) is an ancient region of Greece, at the area of Phthiotis Prefecture, on the both sides of Othrys mountain. It was the homeland of the Myrmidones tribe, who took part in the Trojan War under Achilles. I hope it helps.
What is the meaning of the Greek name Nyleptha?
google it.
Reply:I have never come across that name except in an Allan Quatermain book. I'm not sure it has an actual Greek meaning.
Reply:I found a quote concerning that name the other day while searching for something else... it doesn't have the meaning, per say, but perhaps this will help a bit?
"Much like Ayesha's resemblance to the statue of Truth, the fairer of the sisters, Nyleptha, is compared to her ancestor's most famous female statue - an inspiring angel who revealed to the sculptor his greatest architectural vision."
She is also quoted as "the blonde, blue-eyed good queen"... a Queen of the Zu-Vendi, and "a woman of dazzling fairness".

Trying to find name of book series about Children of Greek Gods and Goddesses?

Trying to find name of book series about Children of Greek Gods and Goddesses?
Percy jackson and the Olympians! There some of the BEST books EVER =)!
Reply:The closest series I can think of is Percy Jackson and the Olympians, but the description doesn't match it totally. Percy has been kicked out of school on numerous occasions, and he may or may not have a girlfriend after the first book. (I've only read the first, but I plan to read the rest.) He has no brother, but his best friend is a satyr that's mission is to protect him. Even if I'm not right on guessing the book series, it's a good read, and I recommend it.
Rick Riordan is the author of the series. There are 5 books (so far, at least).
1. The Lightning Thief
2. The Sea of Monsters
3. The Titan's Curse
4. The Battle of the Labyrinth
5. The Last Olympian
Reply:No sorry, but there's a cartoon (tv) about these kids descended from Greek gods (and Goddesses) called the "Titans" or "Something the Titans" something like that anyway.

Reply:ALTHEA
Gender: Feminine
Usage: Greek Mythology (Latinized)
From the Greek name Αλθαια (Althaia), perhaps related to Greek αλθος (althos) "healing". In Greek myth she was the mother of Meleager. Soon after her son was born she was told that he would die as soon as a piece of wood that was burning on her fire was fully consumed. She immediately extinguished the piece of wood and sealed it in a chest, but in a fit of rage many years later she took it out and set it alight, thereby killing her son.

What is the meaning of the Greek name Nyleptha?
I don't know about the Greek name but the Zu-Vendi name is simply given as a name of one of the Queens of the Zu-Vendi, and since the language is made up, and the book does not provide an explanation, you would have to ask Mr Rider Haggard or find some notes he left behind explaining it (or ask Mr Quatermain).
If you mean the specific epithet nylephtha, I suspect it was given to the damselfly Eccholorolestes nylephtha in honour of the Queen of the Zu-vendi, mispelled deliberately or by accident, as I don't know and can't find any Greek word resembling it, nor any place or family name in South Africa.
if it's possible to give points to questions let me know how because this was a great question inasmuch as any question is great when it makes me learn something.

The most common and well known reason of his punishment is the following:
Before he die, he said to his wife not to put his dead body into the soil. When he died, he went down to Hades and found Plouton. He told him to let him live for some hours in order to punish his wife for not bearing his body and then he promised that he would come back.
When he came back he punished his wife but he didn't returned to Hades. Then Plouton ordered Hermes to bring Sisyphus down to Hades and then he and Zeus punished with the way I said before...

What word comes from the name of a young girl in Greek Mythology who talked too much?
In Greek mythology, Echo (Greek 峒ㄏ囅? was an Oread (a mountain nymph) who loved her own voice. Zeus loved consorting with beautiful nymphs and visited them on Earth often. Eventually, Zeus's wife, Hera, became suspicious, and came from Mt. Olympus in an attempt to catch Zeus with the nymphs.
Zeus, the King of the Olympians, was known for his many love affairs. Sometimes the young and beautiful Nymph Echo would distract and amuse his wife Hera with long and entertaining stories, while Zeus took advantage of the moment to ravish the other mountain nymphs. When Hera discovered the trickery she punished the talkative Echo by taking away her voice, except in foolish repetition of another's shouted words. Thus, all Echo could do was repeat the voice of another.

What is the name of the ancient greek diety?
You will have better luck researching your assignment if you ask a search engine a more detailed less broad question. The ancient Greeks had various personalities of The Deity, a god of war, a goddess of the earth, a god of wine etc. Get an explanation of this question from the instructor who gave this assignment and do not use this open forum to cheat.
Do you feel properly scolded now? Good. You did go to the effort of using the computer rather than copying the nerdiest person in class so I can tell you the name of the Father type chief of the Greek pantheon is Zeus. His wife is Hera and her women are everywhere so mind your manners student.
Reply:Your question is a little vague but Zeus was the head god of the Greek gods.
Reply:The gods had many names. The Olympian pantheon included Zeus, Hera, Hades, Posedein, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Hesphastus, Hermes, Demeter, and Hestia.

What is the roman name for the Greek God [or nymph?] Echo?
I am doing a report on the greek goddess Echo. I need to know the roman name for her and can't seem to find it anywhere.
If you happen to know, or find out thank you so much!

What is the roman name for the Greek God [or nymph?] Echo?
Echo is the Roman name. It was transliterated (when you replace the greek sounds with their equivalent latin letters) from the Greek 峒ㄏ囅? It's similar to how the Greek and Latin words for Apollo are the same, just that the Greek is spelled using the Greek alphabet. Sometimes the Romans didn't have original equivalents, so they just used the Greek name.
Hope this helps

Can someone translate my middle name into the Greek alphabet?
Although I'm Greek, I've never actually been to Greece nor do I speak the language. But for some time now I've been wondering how to write my name in Greek.
It's Leda Vamvakerides
I think I have the "Leda" part, but I'm not completely sure...Λήδα?
If you could help that would be great.
Thanks!
Can someone translate my middle name into the Greek alphabet?
Λήδα Βαμβακερίδη
(pronounced more or less as
"LEEtha VamvakehREEthee").
Your last name is a bit rare, bur recognizable as a greek one.
Βαμβάκι - μπαμπάκι - βαμπάκι means "cotton" in greek,
and βαμβακερός (vamvakeROs) means "of cotton".
-Ides (-ίδης) is a suffix showing origin. It is related to provenience from the Pontos area
(It could help you a lot if someone from your family could tell you about this fantastic background).
In greek, names have cases, shown by their suffixes. For a female last name, you drop the final s (distinctive nominative case masculine suffix) to make the genitive case (which shows where you belong to /come from).
So, Βαμβακερίδη == (member of the family) of (a man named) Vamvakerides.

What is the name of the Ancient Greek Character who had her tongue cut off to stop her telling who raped her?
hope this helps...........
"The Voice of the Shuttle" comes from Sophocles and refers to Polymela, a young woman who was savagely raped by her brother-in-law, a Thracian king. To prevent her from telling her sister (his wife) what had happened, he cut out her tongue. Desperate, Polymela used the only means she had available -- she let her wooden shuttle speak for her as she wove the scenes of her rape and mutilation into a tapestry. When her sister saw it, she understood what had happened and took a terrible revenge upon her husband.
In this powerful 1984 paper (originally appearing in an earlier form in The Stanford Literature Review 1: 25-53), "The Voice of the Shuttle is Ours," by Dr. Patricia Klindienst, the myth is explored from a feminist perspective. This is one of the most brilliant and insightful essays I've read in years.

Anybody know what the name Lucifer or from the Greek Original text what it means?
Many people say light but that is kind of wrong I believe because Jesus is the Light! I have heard that he is not called Lucifer in the Greek Manuscript.
Anybody know what the name Lucifer or from the Greek Original text what it means?
KJV -Gods is good with the Hebrew but there is the Greek Translation
"螘蠅蟽蠁慰蟻慰蟼" Complex word..."螘蠅 + 桅蔚蟻蠅" 螘蠅=Dawn and 桅蔚蟻蠅 =carry or bring
So we have the one who carries dawn or brings dawn, same as Christoforos meaning the one who carries the Christ.
Reply:Lucifer comes from the Pagan name Lucifera which means light bringer. It was added on to the names of goddesses (ex. Diana Lucifer or Isis Lucifer). It was a name the Pagans used to show the light that their deities brought to them.
The early Christian church, it its ever long battle to destroy paganism, took the name and added it to their cosmic scapegoat known as Satan. But they didn't stop there. They took the Pagan's image for their male god, with his horns and hooves, and made that the image of the same devil. This way, early converters would see these once beautiful pagan images and associate them with evil, thus helping the church to demonize the Pagan faith.
Reply:The Latin Vulgate version of the Bible used this word twice to refer to the Morning Star: once in 2 Peter 1:19 to translate the Greek word "桅蠅蟽蠁蠈蟻慰蟼" (Phosphoros), which has exactly the same literal meaning of "Light-Bringer" that "Lucifer" has in Latin;
Reply:It does mean light, or light-bringer, something along those lines.
My Brazilian gangster buddy's name is Luz, it also means light. It's derived from Lucifer.
Reply:Lucifer is Latin for "light-bearer." I think Lucifer is only mentioned in the Old Testament, and is a mistranslation of a name for Venus, the morning star. So there would be no original Greek text.
Reply:I think it's actually bringer of light, or bearer of light. Which would make sense, in a way: you cannot perceive the light except against a dark background. If there were no darkness, the concept of light would not even exist.
Reply:Lucifer means chief spirit of evil, adversary of God; tempter of mankind;Master of Hell
Reply:Let's get the record straight. First, there is no lucifer, second was his right hand, the enforcer, the one that did all the dirty work so god could take his throne.
Reply:Lucifer I believe means the angel of light. But I'm not sure.
Reply:Lucifer means light bearer. It just means he brings what is in the dark to the light.
Reply:Lucifer comes from the Hebrew heylel meaning "light bearer"
Reply:Light Bringer
Reply:Lucifer does not mean light or light bearer and it most certainly does not mean morning star as the satanic NIV wishes people to believe, or any other such nonsense taught by uneducated theologians.
The word Lucifer is from the Hebrew word HAYLEL, meaning "praise to", as in the beginning of HALLELUIAH (praise be to Yahweh).
However, without a subject attached, the word has the connotation of SELF PRAISER, self glorifier, illuminated from within (as in arrogantly) - hence the words LUCENT (now used by a particular phone company run by known Luciferians).
Why did you give me thumbs down before I even posted anything? You people are seriously possessed.

Reply:The Latin Vulgate version of the Bible used this word twice to refer to the Morning Star: once in 2 Peter 1:19 to translate the Greek word "桅蠅蟽蠁蠈蟻慰蟼" (Phosphoros), which has exactly the same literal meaning of "Light-Bringer" that "Lucifer" has in Latin;
Reply:It does mean light, or light-bringer, something along those lines.
My Brazilian gangster buddy's name is Luz, it also means light. It's derived from Lucifer.
Reply:Lucifer is Latin for "light-bearer." I think Lucifer is only mentioned in the Old Testament, and is a mistranslation of a name for Venus, the morning star. So there would be no original Greek text.
Reply:I think it's actually bringer of light, or bearer of light. Which would make sense, in a way: you cannot perceive the light except against a dark background. If there were no darkness, the concept of light would not even exist.
Reply:Lucifer means chief spirit of evil, adversary of God; tempter of mankind;Master of Hell
Reply:Let's get the record straight. First, there is no lucifer, second was his right hand, the enforcer, the one that did all the dirty work so god could take his throne.
Reply:Lucifer I believe means the angel of light. But I'm not sure.
Reply:Lucifer means light bearer. It just means he brings what is in the dark to the light.
Reply:Lucifer comes from the Hebrew heylel meaning "light bearer"
Reply:Light Bringer
Reply:Lucifer does not mean light or light bearer and it most certainly does not mean morning star as the satanic NIV wishes people to believe, or any other such nonsense taught by uneducated theologians.
The word Lucifer is from the Hebrew word HAYLEL, meaning "praise to", as in the beginning of HALLELUIAH (praise be to Yahweh).
However, without a subject attached, the word has the connotation of SELF PRAISER, self glorifier, illuminated from within (as in arrogantly) - hence the words LUCENT (now used by a particular phone company run by known Luciferians).

Reply:The Greeks word for love in the aesthetic sense was agape. There were other words for sexual love and love of mankind. There was not one form of Greek so there can be many answers to your question.
To phrase it better, there were over 1500 city states that considered themselves Greek. They had many variations in language. It was not just Athens and Sparta.
Reply:Eros
Reply:Well, there were many different Greek city states in antiquity, with different history and different dialect, but this does not mean they could not understand each other. Of course they could (but linguists will have a better explanation for these matters). The difficult point is to find an appropriate word for each word you give. All of the ancient greek words for them exist in modern greek, but the meaning is not (exactly) the same anymore, and there are distinct words for different types of the same thing, like love, as mentioned by Lyyman.
Physical beauty is described mostly by

Art is
螝伪位位喂蟿蔚蠂谓委伪 (cuh-lee-teh-Hnee- uh, h as in horse, beautiful practice)
韦苇蠂谓畏 (teh -hnee, from the verb 蟿委魏蟿蠅=bear, so
韦苇蠂谓畏 is giving birth, practicing, it is more related to art-ifacts and art-isans)
Clothes
螘谓未蠉渭伪蟿伪 (ehn-thee-muh-tuh)
Love
桅喂位蠈蟿畏蟼 (phee-loh-tis, philo-sophy) -general sense (liking)

螒纬维蟺畏 (agapee) -though it existed as a word it gained great importance when Christianism begun to rise]
Courage
螛维蟻蟻慰蟼 (thuh-rohs)
[not sure about its use either. 螤伪蟻蟻畏蟽委伪 is the courage to speak out, it literally means all-saying]

What was the name of the man in greek mythology that the big bird ate out of his stomach?
It seems like it was an eagle. I think Zeus put him in chains, and his punishment was that a bird ate of his stomach every day.
What was the name of the man in greek mythology that the big bird ate out of his stomach?
Prometheus was a son of Iapetus by Clymene (one of the Oceanids). He was a brother of Atlas, Menoetius, and Epimetheus. He surpassed all in cunning and deceit. He held no awe for the gods, and he ridiculed Zeus, though he fought alongside the gods against the other Titans. Prometheus was the creator of man. When he and Epimetheus ("hind-" or "after-thought") set out to make creatures to populate the earth under the orders of Zeus, Epimetheus went with quantity and made many creatures, endowing them with many gifts that were allotted to the brother for that purpose (fur, claws, wings, and fins were some of these gifts). While his brother was making creatures, Prometheus was carefully crafting a creature after the shape of the gods. It was a man. However, Prometheus took so long in crafting his masterpiece that when he was finished, Epimetheus had already used up all the gifts from Zeus. Prometheus was sorry for his creations, and watched as they shivered in the cold wintry nights. He decided to steal fire from the gods after Zeus disagreed with his idea of helping the men. He climbed Olympus and stole fire from the chariot of Helios (or, in later mythology, Apollo). He carried the fire back in the stalk of a fennel plant, which burns slowly and so was appropriate for this task. Thus mankind was warm. To appease Zeus, Prometheus told the men to sacrifice offerings to the gods. He killed a great bull for this purpose. When the gods smelled the offerings, Prometheus decided to play a trick on the gods. The meat he hid beneath a layer of bone and sinew, whilst the bones he disguised with delicious-looking fat. He then offered Zeus his choice of "meat" for the gods to eat. Zeus picked the plate of bones, and Prometheus took the plate of meat for himself and the mortals. To punish Prometheus for this hubris (and all of mankind in the process), Zeus took fire away from the earth.
To get revenge on Prometheus for his continued offenses, Zeus had Hephaestus (Vulcan) make a woman made of clay named Pandora. This is how the first women were gotten from. Pandora was the mother of all women. Zeus brought her to life and sent her to Prometheus, along with a jar with all the valuable presents she had received from the gods in it. Prometheus was suspicious and would have nothing to do with Pandora, claiming that she was foolish (lacking foresight), and she was sent on to Epimetheus, who married her though Prometheus had warned him not to accept gifts from Zeus.
Zeus was further enraged by Prometheus's escape and had Prometheus carried to Mount Caucasus, where an eagle by the name of Ethon (offspring of the monsters Typhon and Echidna) would eat out his liver; it would grow back each day and the eagle would eat it again. This punishment was to last 30,000 years. About 12 generations later, Heracles (known as Hercules in Roman mythology), passing by on his way to find the apples of the Hesperides as part of the Twelve Labours, freed Prometheus, in a bargain he had agreed with Zeus in exchange for Chiron's immortality, by shooting the eagle with an arrow. Zeus did not mind this time that Prometheus had again evaded his punishment, as the act brought more glory to Heracles, who was Zeus's son. Prometheus was invited to return to Olympus, though he still had to carry with him the rock that he was chained to.
As the introducer of fire and inventor of sacrifice he is seen as the patron of human civilization. Uncertain sources claim he was worshipped in ancient Rome as well along with other gods.
He was the father of Deucalion with Clymene.

Reply:It was the Titan Prometheus--the bird ate his liver. This was punishment for giving humans fire.
Reply:Prometheus. It means "forethought." He stole fire from the gods and gave it to man; it would be an understatement to say that Zeus was annoyed.
Reply:Ernie...Or Burt...maybe Oscar the Grouch ;-)
Reply:Prometheus. he taught man to make fire, which the gods had reserved for themselves. Zeus got mad and it was indeed an eagle each day, but it ate his liver, not his stomach.
Reply:The punishment that Zeus gave Promethius for giving fire to mankind was to chain him high on a mountain and have a large eagle peck out his liver on a daily basis. This continued until Hercules freed him from his chains, which having been forged by Vulcan, could not be broken by anyone..or so they thought...
Reply:Prometheas and promitheas mean to provide which comes from the greek word promitheia which actually means supply.
Reply:Prometheus was also the god who created humans out of clay one day when he was bored. Hence his paternal feelings for them in giving them fire to warm themselves. The other gods felt that fire, or knowledge, should be theirs and no one elses, Prometheus was punished by being tied to the rock.
This was stolen by the christian mythmakers who turned it in to the Garden of Eden story in their own creation myth. Prometheus became a serpent, fire became fruit. Eventually the serpent was cast down himself. At least he got a whole realm to himself, didn't get his liver nibbled... :)
If you need any further evidence, the name "Lucifer" means "light bringer."
Even religion admits that knowledge is its number one enemy.

I've added a creamsicle corn to my collection of pets, I'm looking for a Greek/ Roman mythology name for him.
Aries- greek god of war
Zeus- greek god 'king of gods'
Actaeon, Hercules, Odysseus, and Perseus are other greek names.
Because Thor is a Norse name, you could name your new snake Odin, Freyr, Tyr or Loki as well. :)

What is the name of this painting depicting a greek god and a girl?
The god is in the form of a grey cloud which then forms a hand to caress the girl's face. The scene is set in the countryside and I believe the girl may be sitting on a wall with her face turned up towards the cloud.

What's the greek/latin name for word lover ( . . .phile)?
An audiophile is one who loves sound/music. What's the name of a word lover. I know I've heard it, but am drawing a blank.
What's the greek/latin name for word lover ( . . .phile)?
Well, I am one!
The word is philologist:
- from Greek philologi, from philologos, fond of learning or of words : philo-, philo- + logos, reason, speech;
- Latin philologia.
"Logos" has many meanings ranging from 'Words' to 'Ideas' or even 'Form' itself. Plato uses the adjective "philologos" meaning 'fond of conversation', or of Socrates as 'loving talking, fond of discussion and dialog'. Hellenistic and Latin authors like Cicero tend to think of Philology as 'a love of learning', especially 'love of literature' the good things inherited from an ancient and highly respectable Greek culture.
Reply:In Latin, "to love" is "amare". "I love" is "amo".
"Lover" is "amans"

What is the name of a Greek story in which there are two lovers who have a romance through a hole in the wall?
That play was called Pyramus and Thisbe. I was told by my first lit professor that it was the inspiration for Romeo and Juliet. As I recall, that was the play the mechanicals put on in a Midsummer Night's Dream, as well. Must have been a favorite of Will's.

What is that Greek name that starts with an "S"?
About a year ago I was in Greece, on a tour we learned alot about history and lifestyle.
It is traditon in Greece to name a child after the grandparents. If a woman desires to have a child and is having trouble she must climb a hill (not just any hill, but a certain one believed to help her become fertile) and spend the night. They thank the god for giving them a child by naming the child after the god. There is a variation for the male and female and they are both beautiful. What are they?
What is that Greek name that starts with an "S"?
It is not a god they thank, it is a Saint (for Christians of the Catholic and the Orthodox Church there are Saints-protectors of many things/categories of people, for other churches I do not know).
螜 have not heard about it, but I searched a little and: there is
Saint Stylianos who cured heavily children or infertile women and protected them. The celebration day for him and all named after him is on the 26th of November.
(St'elios/Stylian'os for men, Stylian'i/ or St'ella (which means something different, but resembles the first one) for women

Please name Socrates' (a greek philosopher) main idea, important contribution and influence on today?
He is best known for the creation of Socratic irony and the Socratic Method, or elenchus. Specifically, Socrates is renowned for developing the practice of a philosophical type of pedagogy, in which the teacher asks questions of the students to elicit the best answer, and fundamental insight, on the part of the student.
Socrates is credited with exerting a powerful influence upon the founders of Western philosophy, most particularly Plato and Aristotle, and while Socrates' principal contribution to philosophy is in the field of ethics, he also made important and lasting contributions to the fields of epistemology and logic. (wiki)
Please name Socrates' (a greek philosopher) main idea, important contribution and influence on today?
Socrates' main ideas:
1) Don't be content to live the way that you are told.
2) Always test and weigh ideas.
3) Live rationally and intently.
4) Most Important = The unexamined life is not worth living.

there's also thales - it sounds like his sister's name and makes them more connected in a sense
