    Many of these answers have not been from Greek Mythology (i.e. Diana, Freya, etc.)

    Here is a list of Female names that are actually from Greek Mythology:

    Andromeda

    Medea

    Io

    Europa

    Cassandra

    Calliope

    Antigone

    Artemis

    Athena

    Hera

    Demeter

    Persephone

    Dido

    Leda

    Eurydice

    Circe

    Calypso

    Electra

    Daphne

    Psyche

    Tethys

    Galatea

    Atalanta

    Iphigenia

    Clytemnestra

    Helen

    Niobe

    Hippolyta

    Thisbe

    Here's some of the suggestions that have been false:

    Diana (Roman)

    Freya (Norse)

    Morrigan (Celtic)

    Minerva(Roman)

    Isis (Egyptian)

    Venus(Roman)

    Helena (possibly a derivation of 'Helen,' certainly not the name of any figure in Greek mythology I've heard of)
