Who is the first goddess in Greek mythology?
Officially, there were three goddesses that were known of first. They are Hera, Hestia and Demeter. Actually there are several goddesses that are older than the three sisters. The first goddess created/born would be Anance: ANANKE (or Anance) was the Protogenos(primeval goddess) of inevitability, compulsion and necessity. She emerged self-formed at the very beginning of time--an incorporeal, serpentine being whose outstretched arms encompassed the breadth of the universe. (see theoi.com)

Was Columbia a Greek goddess?
Columbia is actually a Roman name, from the word "columba" meaning "dove". I can see how it might have been a name of Venus, though I've never seen any evidence of it, but it was most definitely not a separate goddess and just as definitely not Greek.
