The tall mountain on Venus named for a man is Maxwell Montes. It is the highest mountain range on the planet, reaching about 11 kilometers (7 miles) in elevation. Named after the Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell, this feature stands out due to its significant height compared to the generally flat terrain of Venus. Maxwell Montes is located in the planet's Ishtar Terra region, known for its rugged topography.
Actually, it's named after a goddess, not a god. It's the only planet named after a goddess. Thousands of years ago the Romans looked to the sky and saw Venus. They thought it was a star, a very beautiful one. So they named it after their goddess of beauty and love. Hope this helps. :)
