I've got a few issues with the names used for the four titans of the original movie. When I was younger I had a Hercules computer game, in which the Titans were only referred to as as "Ice Titan", "Lava Titan", Wind Titan, Rock Titan. I played this game often and this isn't something I'm prone to forgetting. They even call them "Rock Titan" and "Ice Titan" in Kingdom Hearts. Did somebody just pull these names from nowhere? I never watched the animated series though, did these names come from that? If so the creators could've done better. Lythos should be spelled with an "i" instead of "y". "Hydro" is greek for "water", the name "Cryos" (greek for ice) would've been better. I'll give them credit for the name "stratos" though, calling him Anemos (the greek word for wind) could've confused him with the anemoi (the greek wind gods). "Stratos" in greek means "army" (i.e. strategy), this name meant to relate to "stratosphere" (the meteorological eytimology is a bit confused). As far as lava Titan goes it'd be difficult giving him a proper magma related name name without confusing him with deites like Hephaestus or particular volcanoes, like Etna. Pyros is a decent name considering to Greeks lava and fire were essentially synonymous. In any case if these names aren't official we should note that they are just fan names.
