Odysseus

This name derives from the Ancient Greek “odýssomai (ὀδύσσομαι) Odysséus (Ὀδυσσεύς),” meaning “to be wroth against, hate, full of anger, wrathful.” Odysseus, also known by the Roman name Ulysses, was the perhaps fictional Greek King of Ithaca and the hero of Homer’s epic poem the Odyssey. Odysseus was the husband of Penelope, father of Telemachus, and son of Laërtes and Anticlea. He is most famous for the ten eventful years he took to return home after the decade-long Trojan War and his renowned Trojan horse ploy to capture the city of Troy.
