In Greek mythology, Perseus was not the son of Poseidon- he was the son of Zeus. In the fictional series 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians', Percy was the son of Poseidon, but that is never stated by actual sources for mythology.
the reason was that Perseus was the son of Poseidon. Yes, Perseus is the son of Poseidon. But she named him after the son of Zeus, who was a great hero. Sally always wanted Percy (her son) to become a hero like Perseus (son of Zeus). She called him "Percy" later on, probably to make his name easer to say. -Coco
