#Achilles
- Aeacides — An ancient patronymic used to designate any male descendant of Aeacus, the legendary king of Aegina and judge in Hades; it primarily refers to Achilles, Peleus, and Telamon. In an extended historical context, the name also refers to members of the Aeacid dynasty who ruled ancient Epirus, including King Aeacides himself (the father of Pyrrhus).
- Achilles — The legendary chief hero of Homer's epic Iliad, son of the goddess Tethys and the mortal Peleus, famous for his courage, strength, and destructive wrath during the Trojan War. Dipped by his mother in the river Styx to become invulnerable, he remained vulnerable only at the heel by which he was held. In a broad sense, the name designates the prototype of the invincible warrior, and in anatomy, it names the strongest muscle tendon.
- Achilleus — An academic graphic and phonetic variant, faithful to the direct transliteration from Ancient Greek, for the name of the mythological hero Achilles. It is primarily used in classical philology studies, rigorous modern translations of Homeric epics, and specialized historical works to restore the original sound of the name of the son of the goddess Tethys and King Peleus.
- Achillides — A rare or archaic patronymic form found in old Romanian translations or classicist poetry, used to designate a descendant or legendary offspring of Achilles (such as his son, Neoptolemus). It can also be used stylistically as an antonomastic epithet to describe a young warrior who inherits the physical qualities, bravery, and fierce spirit of the great Homeric hero.
- Antilochus — A legendary prince of Pylos in Greek mythology, son of King Nestor and Anaxibia, renowned for his bravery, beauty, and foot-speed during the Trojan War. In a structural and narrative sense, he represents the archetype of the devoted friend and loyal warrior, sacrificing his own life to save his father from an attack by Memnon, king of the Ethiopians, with his deeds celebrated in Homeric epics.
- Automedon — The name of a renowned character in Greek mythology, son of Diores, famous as the faithful chariot driver and armor-bearer of the hero Achilles during the Trojan War, later taking over the reins for Patroclus as well. In world literature, due to masterful descriptions in Homer's Iliad, his name became an eponymous common noun (automedon) used antonomastically to designate an excellent charioteer, an extremely skillful coachman, or, in modern terms, an expert professional driver.
