Vesta and Hestia share their root name meaning; the name of the goddess derives from Indoeuropean root *h₁eu-, via the derivative form *h₁eu-s- which alternates with *h₁w-es-. The former is found in Greek heuei, Latin urit, ustio and Vedic osathi all conveying burning and the second is found in Vesta, Greek Hestia.
