About Iphimedeia
A minor figure in Greek mythology, who was apparently quite fond of incest; she married her uncle and bore several children by Poseidon, god of the sea, who was her grandfather.
In short: If ever a name made Iphigenia look usable by comparison, this is it.
Pronounced if-i-muh-DAY-uh.
