In fact the rockets were called Saturn, Apollo was the name of the missions. NASA used "classical" names to name their programmes from 1958 until the Space Shuttle missions started. The first manned missions were Mercury (the messenger of the Gods), the intermediate missions between Mercury and Apollo were called Gemini - named after the astrological sign of the twins as the Gemini missions had two astronauts per flight. Apollo was named by Abe Silverstein after the God of light and Archery.

Apollo was the name of the project that was attempting to get men to the moon. The program was named after the Greek god of light and music by NASA manager Abe Silverstein.

The first mission was Apollo 1, then Apollo 2 and so on. Apollo 7 was the first of the Apollo missions to take men into space. Apollo 11 was the first one to land on the moon. Apollo 17 was the last Apollo mission.
