What would be a good name for a Greek god of storms?

I have to do this for a school project. Any ideas?

What would be a good name for a Greek god of storms?
As most of the Greek names end with -is I think it would be nice to name him ΣΤΟΡΜΗΣ in Latin char. Stormis.


or


ΤΡΙΚΥΜΙΩΔΗΣ in Latin char. Trikymiodis which means rough, stormy


or


ΠΟΛΥΤΑΡΑΧΟΣ in Latin char. Polytarachos which also means stormy





Good luck with your school project !
Reply:Hi there.this is a name from lost tribes of Aramaean peoples of Syria folklore who was an actual ancient weather god of Semitic origin.


Hadad.-Literally, ‘the crasher’.Hadad, synonymous with Baal-Hadad, who convulsed the earth, shook mountains, and blasted trees. The rulers of Damascus were known in biblical times as Bar-Hadad, ‘the sons of Hadad’. A reference in Zechariah suggests that he fulfilled a fertility role like Baal: there is mention of a lament for the dead god.


An ancient weather god of Semitic origin,he was worshiped under many names. As god of the storm, he was, according to one legend, the Epic of Gilgamesh, responsible for the great flood that overwhelmed the world.






Reply:I'm assuming this has to be a completely original and made-up name, or else you'd just look up some real names of Greek gods that would work, right?





Ok, how about Tornadeus?





Tsunameor? or Tsunamator?





Apocholops?





Terroxiphor?
Reply:Καταιγίδα -Kateyida = means storm (fem)


Αστραπιός - Astrapius (made that up) (Astrapi = lightning .fem.) (masc.)


Κεραυνός - Keravnus = thunder (masc)





That's all i could come up with. Hope i helped
