Really surprised by the lack of mention of rape on this page. Seem like every mythological woman raped by him gets that added to the page. Very sexist.

It's pretty sexist that Io's page says "raped by Zeus" but Zeus's page doesn't say "rapist of Io."

I think a child called Zeus would struggle to get a job and be taken seriously. If you are desparate yo give this name to your child then give them a sensible middle name.

I actually know of a guy who goes by his middle name Zeus--and he's a complete douchebag.

I don't think Zeus is much to live up to at all. A philandering, rapist, adulterer isn't the best namesake in my book. I love Greek mythology, but come on, there are WAY better choices than Zeus!
