Planets have been named after Roman Gods. The name Jupiter is of Latin origin, and it means "the supreme god". In Roman Mythology, Jupiter is the sky god equivalent to the Greek God Zeus, and was also the King of Gods. He was also the father of Mars. Lightning bolts were thought to be messages from Jupiter to mortals on Earth. Jupiter was the name of the King of the Gods in the Roman pantheon, essentailly the same character as Zeus in the Greek pantheon.
