    Χρόνος (Chronus) & Κρόνος (Cronus/Saturn) were two different Greek deities.
    Hades was not considered evil by the Greeks, only by Hollywood. The most evil thing he did in Greek mythology was to take his wife from her mother, but even then he agreed to have them live together for half of the year. Realistically thought, Persephone was worshiped as an underworld goddess centuries before Hades.

    Also, in Romanian, Earth is called Pamant, after the word for Pavement in Latin. It is most likelly because we didn't believe in the religion of the Romans to the extent that the western nations did.

    The god Ouranos was called Uranus in Latin. William Herschell wanted to name the planet "Georgium Sidus", "George's Star", after King George III of Great Britain. Of course, other countries disagreed, so after some debates, scientists settled for Uranus. There was some elegance to it, since Uranus was Saturn's father, who was in turn Jupiter's father. To mark the origin of its discoverer, Uranus' satellites were given Shakespearean names instead (mainly from "A Midsummer's Night Dream" and "The Tempest" : Titania, Oberon, Puck, Miranda, Ariel, etc.).
    Neptune was not named after its colour. No one knew what colour was Neptune before the probe Voyager 2 went there in 1989. It's discoverer, Urbain Le Verrier, proposed Neptune himself (Neptune had also been proposed for Uranus). Neptune was one of the three brothers born of Saturn, so it was a logical choice.
    As for Pluto, the name was simply to complete the Olympian trio : Jupiter, Neptune and Pluto. However, it was also to honor the memory of the astronomer who first theorized its existence, Percival Lowell, his initials being the first two letters of PLuto. The planet was discovered after his death and following his calculations by Clyde Tombaugh.

    In ancient world there were only 7 known heavenly bodies: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Uranus was found much later in 1781. That's why number 7 became such a sacred number especially in astrology.
    In Finnish those 7 heavenly bodies are Aurinko (Sun), Kuu (Moon), Merkurius, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturnus. The Earth in Finnish is Maa, or maapallo (the globe).

    Nice video!
    And your pronunciation was not thy far of how we are pronouncing these words!!!👏🏻
    Way better than the hideous Erasmian pronunciation that all Europeans have in their minds for our language🇬🇷
    Some friendly corrections:
    Romans adopted the religion of ancient Hellas!
    Etruscans (the ancestors of Italians) had a different religion before the met with Hellenes!
    The romans adopted almost everything from Hellas!
    Gods, architecture, literature, philosophy, historiography, poetry… everything.
    So, technically every planet has the name of a Hellene God even though everyone know them with their Latin translations!
    Romans/Etruscans had different Gods before they met us.
    Ancient Hellenes had seen and named these planet king before Romans and they gave to them the names you told us in the video.
    Without the telescopes that we have today they had seen those planets and they gave them the names of our Gods.
    Later, when we saw through telescopes Poseidon and Pluton, the astronomers kept the lineage of the Gods and gave them names according to Hellenic mythology but with their Latin equivalent!
    Also, Hades was NEVER hated in ancient Hellas!!! This is a big lie from Hollywood.
    In every film we see Hades as the bad guy…
    1000% wrong!
    Hades was a very kind God and Hellenes respected him a lot! They didn’t feared him!
    As you said, Pluto also derives from the Hellenic word πλούτος/plùtos which means riches and wealth.
    Hellenes knew that you can find precious metals in the ground.
    The first goldsmiths in the world were the Thracians🇬🇷 which they created incredible gold artefacts!
    Hades palace in the underworld was described decorated with millions of precious stones!

    Watch out for your errors. Jupiter has never been pronounced in English the way you say it: the letter "j" is not palatalised in English as it is in many European languages. It is always a sound you don't have in Spanish or French but similar to the Italian gi - as in Giuseppe or Giovanni. Also it is not correct to say that Uranus is not visible: in a dark sky one can get a glimpse of it but it is so dim that it looks like any faint star so was only discovered the 18th century by Herschel, (William, not Friedrich). Although he was born in Hannover, he moved to Britain permanently as a teenager and he always considered himself British, not German.
