When Circe discovered Odysseus' name, she was both surprised and intrigued. Recognizing him as the hero of the Trojan War, she acknowledged his reputation and the challenges he had faced. This revelation led her to treat him with greater respect and hospitality, ultimately fostering a deeper connection between them. Circe's reaction underscored her recognition of Odysseus' strength and cunning, which aligned with her own powerful nature.
Circe is the witch-goddess that Odysseus and his crew meet after leaving the Cyclops Polyphemus's island. Odysseus sends a party of 23 men to search Aeaea (the name of the island and Circe's home). Circe invited them into her home and gave them food, but they all behaved like pigs, so that's exactly what Circe turns them into. Eurylochus, one of the men, does not eat, and he runs back to Odysseus to tell him. When Odysseus leaves, he meets Hermes, the messenger god who gives him a plant to protect him from the magic of Circe. being unable to defeat Odysseus, frees his men, but persuades Odysseus to stay with her. after the seasons pass though, Odysseus asks her to help him and his men go home. Circe tells him to seek out the blind prophet Teiresias in the land of the dead for a prophecy about his journey.

Ok, you've got a bit confused there. You're clearly thinking of Circe, who wasn't a goddess, but a nymph. Her father was Helios, god of the Sun, and her mother was Perse, an Oceanid. She did transform Odysseus' men into pigs, but at no point did she eat them. Odysseus saved them by making love to Circe. Simple really: shag a bird to get what you want
According to Hesiod, Circe bore three children from her union with Odysseus. They were Ardeas, Latinus and Telegonus. They ruled jointly over a group of people called the Tyrsenoi - another name for Tyrrhenians, the name used for non-Greek people. It is presumed that the people in question were Etruscan, since they were often referred to as "Latins", hence the name of their language.
her name is circe
Odysseus' wife's name was Penelope. He also had some children with Circe.

Telemachus was Odysseus and Penelope's son, and was the only son mentioned in the Odyssey.They later had Poliporthes after Odysseus returned from Troy.
Circe realizes that Odysseus is a man of great power and intelligence when he resists her magic and speaks to her as an equal, demonstrating his cunning and wit. She eventually discovers his true identity as the great warrior Odysseus when he reveals his name and background to her. This realization marks a turning point in their relationship as Circe begins to help Odysseus on his journey home.
Her name was Persephone. Circe was the sorceress who waylaid Odysseus on the Island of Aeaea.
