Well, considering that the known planets are named after Roman and Greek gods and goddesses, I'd probably continue the tradition by naming one either Athena or Aphrodite.

I think it is very interesting to look at an old thesaurus in English, and compare synonyms for the word "man" with synonyms for "woman". \n\nMan= Synonyms bloke [chiefly British], buck, cat [slang], chap [chiefly British], dude, fellow, gent, gentleman, guy, hombre, jack, joker, lad, male\nRelated Words master, mister, sir\n\nWoman=(in old references) jade, harlot, damsel, dame, mistress, hussy, doll, tramp, s1ut, missus, lady, gentler sex, weaker sex, b1tch, female, hysterical\n\nI think that looking at the context of the culture's language tells you a lot about it, too!\n\nAlso, take words that in Hindu have no direct correlation to English concepts, let alone words. Concepts such as "ananda", "karma", "chit", "chakra", "shakti", etc. These are concepts that allow for life to be circular, rather than linear, in nature.

By far the most shocking one that I'd discovered was "feisty," which literally means "like a farting dog."  It comes from an abbreviation of the phrase "fisting hound" or "fisting dog," and "fist" was in this case a reference to breaking wind.  (Though "fist" was used in the phrase as a general pejorative, like if you tripped over the "fucking chair.")

I've always liked Athena of Greek mythology or Diana of Roman (same god) She's just cool. She's a virgin and never wanted to marry. In one story she caught a hunter watching her bath in a  river. She turned him into a deer and watched as his own hunting dogs tore him apart and ate him. She just had some of the coolest stories
