What is sirens greek name?

In Greek mythology, Sirens were women with the body of a large bird and the head of a woman. They were not harpies, although several depictions give them similarities to harpies. They appeared as beautiful women to sailors, and would sing beautiful songs, so the sailors would steer their ships toward them. The Sirens lived on a rocky island though, so whenever sailors passed, they would steer their ship toward the Sirens and the ship would crash and sink on the rocks. If you listened to the songs and got away alive, however, they were supposed to make you wiser. The Greek hero Odysseus (called Ulysses by the Romans) wanted to hear their songs, so he tied himself to the mast and plugged his crew's ears with wax. Sirens are often associated with mermaids.


How does Odysseus save his crew from sirens song?

he made his crew put wax earplugs in their ears. he himself wanted to hear the sirens beautiful music, so he asked his crew to tie him to the mast, the foundation of a sail. Odysseus's crew ties Odysseus very tightly to the mast, and disarmed him. When the were going past the sirens, Odysseus was screaming and yelling at his crew to let him go to the sirens. The crew obviously did not hear him because they had the wax ear plugs. That is how Odysseus saved his crew from the sirens.

A deadly sea nymph that Odysseus comes upon on his jouney is a siren which is a deadly sea nymph that lours men to their death with their beautiful singing. :( No, the Sirens sing people to swim to them and the Sirens eat them. They are not Nymphs.
