I know that she is a goddess but I am guessing because he needed to know who his mentor was.
She used to like Percy Jackson's dad Poseidon. Now Odysseus
If you mean the goddess, then "Athena" is her "whole name." She's sometimes called by other names, because, as you might have gathered from the name, mythology consists of myths, and there's nothing stopping you from making one now in which you "reveal" her true name as Athena Wal-Mart Kresge.
When Odysseus returns to Ithaca from his voyage at sea, he is disguised as a beggar and lives with Eumaeus, the swineherd. Odysseus then must win the contest of strining a bow and shooting an arrow through axe-heads that Penelope set up. After he has done this, he must battle his wife's suitors and reclaim his spot as king.
The Gods aren't for or against Odysseus. The majority of them couldn't care less whether he lived or died. It was Poseidon that hated him and tried everything he could to delay his journey home and kill him, and it was Athena who was helping him.
Odysseus was the King of Ithaca, an independent island kingdom in what is now Greece.

Athena instructs Odysseus that he must tell Telemachus his story. She said to Odysseus: "High-born son of Laertes, ready Odysseus, tell now your story to your son. Hide it no longer. Then having planned the suitors' death and doom, go forward both of you into the famous city. And I myself will not be far away, for I am eager for the combat."

Odysseus was the King of Ithaca, an independent island kingdom in what is now Greece.
Though he is a god, Hephaestus does not appear in the Odyssey at all. However, he is mentioned many times in epic similes when Odysseus is cleansed by Athena. In the epic similes, Odysseus is being compared to Hephaestus polishing silver: "As a master craftsman washes gold over beaten silver--a man the god of fire and Queen Athena trained in every fine technique--and finishes off his last effort, hansome work...so she lavishes splendor over his head and shoulders now" (Book 23 line 178).
