Name Origin[]

Hades (from Ancient Greek Hāidēs) was the ancient Greek god of the underworld. Eventually, the god's name came to designate the abode of the dead. Hades is the oldest male child of Cronus and Rhea. He was swallowed along his siblings Hestia, Demeter, Poseidon, and Hera, exept Zeus, who was hidden and replaced by a rock. After Zeus freed them, according to myth, he and his brothers Zeus and Poseidon defeated the Titans and claimed rulership over the cosmos, ruling the underworld, air, and sea, respectively.

In Greek mythology, Hesperus (Ancient Greek Hesperos) is the Evening Star, the planet Venus in the evening. He is the son of the dawn goddess Eos and is the half-brother of her other son, Phosphorus (also called Eosphorus; the "Morning Star").
