Three elements named after places are Copper, Berkelium, and Californium
i don't know the answer cause it is crazy
Mercury, Plutonium, Uranium
Mercury the element is not really named after mercury the heavenly body: both are named after the Roman messenger god, Mercury. Similarly it is unclear whether uranium is named after uranus the planet or Uranus the mythical Roman god. Neptunium and plutonium definitely are named after the planets, and there is also selenium, named after the moon, and helium, named after the sun.
Two are named for major planets: uranium (Uranus) and neptunium (Neptune).The element mercury is named for the Roman god of speed, as was the planet; but the element was not directly named for the planet.Two are named for minor planets: cerium (Ceres) and plutonium (Pluto).If the asteroid Pallas is promoted to minor planet status, then palladium will join that list.but the most common element named after a planet is uranium(uranus).
Multiple elements as listed by the Periodic Table of the Elements are named after bodies in the Cosmos. Helium (He) regards Greek Helios; the Sun. Mercury (Hg), Uranium (Ur), Neptunium (Np), and Plutonium (Pu) as in the planets, are others.
All planets are named after Roman Gods

Mercury, Uranium, and Neptunium were named after Mercury, Uranus, and Neptune (respectively). Although technically not a planet, Plutonium was named after Pluto.
Mercury from both the planet and the Roman god; Uranium is named after the planet Uranus and Plutonium after the (former) planet Pluto; Neptunium, after the planet Neptune. Tellurium, element 52, gets its name from the Latin "tellus" meaning Earth. Not planets, but element 2, Helium is named from the Greek helios, Sun, and Selenium from the Greek selene, Moon.
No gods are named after planets. But the planets are named after Roman gods.
