Classical planets are the five planets visible to the naked eye from Earth: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. They have been observed since ancient times and hold significance in various astrological and astronomical systems.
Pluto is a Dwarf Planet because it is too small to be a Classical Planet. Dwarf Planets are much smaller than Classical Planets. If you look at a diagram of the solar system with Pluto in it, you will see that it is much smaller compared to the other Classical Planets.
In short - all the major planets save Earth are named for classic gods. Uranus was named for one of the Titans, which most would still include among the classical Greek/Roman gods, though some scholars might classify them separately as the precursors to the gods. The thousands of asteroids are sometimes referred to as 'minor planets'. And, while many are named after classical gods, many more are not.
