Ancient Greek
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Uncertain etymology. Related to the second combining form of Ἀμφιτρίτη f (Amphitrítē), his mother's name. Neither belongs to the Τριτογένεια (Tritogéneia) etymological group.[1](This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.) It has been connected to Ancient Greek τρεῖς (treîs, “three”), in reference to his trident, from Proto-Indo-European *tréyes. Also connected to Old Irish triath. Not related to Ἀμφιτρύων (Amphitrúōn).
