The names of the twelve main greek gods, aka the Olympians, are as follows:
Zeus, god of the sky
Hera, goddess of marriage
Ares, God of War
Aphrodite, goddess of love/lust
Apollo, god of the sun
Artemis, goddess of the moon
Hestia, goddess of the home and hearth
Hades, god of the underworld
Poseidon, god of the sea
Hephaestus, god of work/ironwork, etc.
Hermes, god of messengers and thieves
Demeter, goddess of the harvest
Later, Dionysus (god of wine and son of Zeus) attempted to gain a throne at the Olympian's place. In order to avoid a war, Hestia gave up her place and resigned to becoming a minor goddess.
