Not Greek/Egyption, but what about Thorbjorn? Doesn't get much cooler than Thunder Bear.

StillNoFuckingEyeDeer · 26/06/2016 08:10

Galen

sonlypuppyfat · 26/06/2016 10:45

Osiris God of the dead, that's nice

1horatio · 26/06/2016 15:09

Hector? Julius? Severin? Ulrik?

Puppfat, wasn't Osiris also killed by his brother (but revived by his wife Isis)?

sonlypuppyfat · 26/06/2016 15:27

Yes osiris was chopped up by his brother set and put back together by his wife /sister he was the first mummy

turtlesallthewaydown · 26/06/2016 15:46

Themi, short for Anthemios (a renowned Greek architect), also short for Themistocles (Athenian politician).

1horatio · 26/06/2016 17:15

OP, I am truly sorry if this insults you. But Osiris is pretty terrible, imo.

cecilelliott · 26/06/2016 20:09

Agree that Hector is a great name.
What about:
Lysander?
Orpheus?

Gwen Stefani has an Apollo!

libellule1 · 26/06/2016 21:02

I love a good mythology name!
How about Ajax, Troy, Tristan, Artemis...

Not Ajax, that's a cleaning product.

Raines100 · 27/06/2016 21:56
