What is a unique greek god name for a male great dane?

My dad just got a four month old great dane to "protect" our backyard. He wants a different, unique greek god name for him. Nothing common like Zeus. Give meaning if possible :D

What is a unique greek god name for a male great dane?
Wikipedia had a decent list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_gods





Here are the biggies:


Apollo: god of light and music


Ares: god of war


Poseidon: god of the sea


Hades: god of the underworld


Hermes: God of flight, thieves, commerce, and travelers- messenger of the gods (I think he had the winged sandals)





Other names from greek mythology that I think are cool:


Perseus: killed Medusa (not god)


Kronos: Titan of time, father of 6 Olympian gods

Heres a lot of greek gods and what their names mean.
Reply:Ares


He's the god of war, and even though Great Danes are gentle, he's supposedly a guard dog, sooo.... PLUS IT SOUNDS PRETTY! lol
Reply:Hercules {Roman}


or


Herakles { Greek}


pronounced Ea ra kles


( Hercules)meaning "glory of Hera", or "Glorious through Hera"


I think that would be a great name for such a large and regal strong dog .


Leonidas "Lion's son", "Lion-like") was a king of Sparta,


Also a very regal name Zeus is also a good name king of the gods like the Great Dane is king of the dogs.

Reply:Seeing as he's a Great Dane, why don't you pick a Norse god's name? They're not so common as Greek gods' names and there are some fine Norse names. Search 'Norse gods' and there they'll be.
Reply:Apollo.
Reply:I love: Kronos: Titan of time, father of 6 Olympian gods





This is not heard very often and is a strong name and if you say it deep it sounds really good.





Ares is also good: God of war..
Reply:I would go for Hector, not a god but a greek hero,





Or Hannibal, not really what your looking for but same type of era..


Or Alex for Alexander The Great





Good luck with your new baby! I have two Great Danes, and they are just the most wonderful dogs!
