Astronomical bodies are named by The International Astronomical Union (IAU). However the planets were named in ancient times before the IAU was formed. Thus the IAU followed the convention of the ancients in naming bodies in our solar system after ancient mythological gods. The "Titans" were part of this pantheon and Saturns largest moon was named after them.
