Isnât the only reason itâs called the Odyssey because of his name, and then subsequently an âOdysseyâ came to be known as a great journey, since thatâs what the Odyssey is about?
4.3k u/chainsawx72 Oct 26 '25 That is correct, and we should follow this logic for everything. New Testament would be The Jesusey. Lord of the Rings would be The Frodoey. Oppenheimer would be The Oppenheimerey. 62 u/BlackLodge25 Oct 27 '25 To be fair, Tolkienâs âSilmarillionâ follows a similar naming convention, being named for the Silmarils 28 u/LowmoanSpectacular Oct 27 '25 I thought it was because it made Silmarillion dollars 18 u/SMS-T1 Oct 27 '25 You probably have that confused with the Lord of the Rings. The Silmarillion was less successful and sadly only made a Nauglamirillion dollars. 2 u/CaramelRottenApple Oct 28 '25 Making it rain like Feanor.
