Yes, but also aside from being a titan (powerful deities) and Son of Iapetus. Sources describe Atlas as the father, by different goddesses, of numerous children, mostly daughters.

By Hesperis: the Hesperides

By Pleione (or Aethra): the Hyades; a son, Hyas; the Pleiades.

By one or more unspecified goddesses: Calypso; Dione; Maera
