What is Jupiter's Latin name or meaning?
Jupiter or Jove was the Latin name for the Roman chief of the Gods. He was roughly equivalent to the Greek Zeus. The word is a compound of two other words meaning God and Father and means something like "O Father God" , rather like the "Our Father" which starts the Lord's Prayer. The name is rendered in Latin as Jupiter, or in Classical Latin, before the letter "J" was introduced into that language's alphabet, as Iupiter. Either way, the name would be pronounced as if it began with the sound given in English to the letter "Y" - yoop-it-eer
