Zeus

The name of a Greek god, related to the old Indo-European god *Dyeus, from a root meaning "sky" or "shine". In Greek mythology he was the highest of the gods. After he and his siblings defeated the Titans, Zeus ruled over the earth and humankind from atop Mount Olympus. He had control over the weather and his weapon was a thunderbolt.

The name Zeus means "shining". The ancient Germanic element "beraht", which is in names like Robert, Albert, Herbert, etc, and from which comes the modern name Bert and modern English word "bright" also means "bright, shining". I just find it super cool that these names (Robert, Albert, Herbert, etc) actually have something in common with and also basically share the meaning with the name of the mighty god of the gods, Zeus.

It is thought that the word "deus" -god- comes from Zeus.

Zeus overthrew his Father Cronus. He then drew lots with his brothers Poseidon and Hades. Zeus won the draw and became the supreme ruler of the gods. He is lord of the sky, the rain god. His weapon is a thunderbolt which he hurls at those who displease him. He is married to Hera, but is famous for his many affairs. He is also known to punish those that lie or break oaths.
