Where did titanium get its name?

Answer 1

In Greek mythology, the Titans were the aunt and uncles of the Olympian gods, and were like giants even to them.

Cronos (the Greek name for the god Saturn, which the moon Titan orbits) was the father of the gods, and the oldest and largest of the Titans. So when Saturn's largest moon was discovered in 1655, that name seemed a perfect fit.

Ironically, Titan is only the second-largest moon in the solar system, behind Jupiter's Ganymede. It is, however, the only natural satellite with its own atmosphere -- which makes it unique among our system's moons.
