Help! I need a classical Greek name for a new business

Acheron Day View

Knossos Noshes

Hellespont pass and kick back

Being a greek, I totally have to agree with Mississipienne.

Elysium sounds extremely appealing.

or how about Minerva?

Areté (in Greek characters, APETH) means “excellence.”

I like the sound of “Heorot.” (Old English Heh-uh-ROHT.) It was the banquet hall where Beowulf and his tough guys hung out.

Sure, some horrifyingly brutal, bloody shit went down at Heorot before it burned to the ground, but I still think it’s a cool name.

There’s also Eleutheria, which is Greek for “freedom.”

How about “Ed and Jo’s” ?
(For Oedipus Rex and Jocasta).

Why not keep it simple and call it ‘Omega’?

Didn’t Tepsichore have a lot to do with Bacchus. That would be wine and dance.

The Oracle

How about The Epicurus? Or The Epicurean?

The Ideal

Some friends of mine have opened up an antique shop specilizing in kitchen and dinnerware. They called it Lucullus. Lucullus was consul of Rome in the first centure BC. He was famous for his gardens(which still stand in Rome today) and, more importantly, his feasts. Apparently, (I looked him up when I heard the name) the term Lucullan feast is fairly well known. He also has a variety of spinach named after him. :slight_smile:

Somebody’s going to have to be accountable for all this silliness.

OK, I’m just jealous since the best I could come up with was, “Achilles’ Tenders.”

Perhaps that’d be a good menu item. Ugh.

I like the sound of Prometheus, myself.

Or if you want to name it after a place, why not Delphi?

There’s an Omega restaurant chain in the Western Suburbs of Chicago. My friends love it, but I think it’s the most fucked up name for a restaurant. They do have this “Surprise Zombie” float that is about twelve pounds of ice cream and it is served in what appears to be a vase.

Even so, I’m scared of it.

Well…I suggest:
[ul][li]Xenophon’s Rhododendron-Honey Jamboree[/li][li]Mithridates’s Theraic[/li][li]Hasdrubal’s Head[/li][li]Pestilentia Manu Facta[/li][li]Helenion & Ninon[/li]You go for low brow instead, and call it Ahoy, Hoi Polloi![/ul]
