| − | '''Hippolyta - whose name obviously would not have been an official one in the 10th century - is evidently named after Hippolyta, the Queen of the Amazons in Greek mythology. One of the twelve labors of Heracles was to seize her girdle from her, which he did, although at the cost of Hippolyta’s life. However, the most likely "immediate inspiration" for Hyppolyta’s name, from [[Greg Wesiman|Greg Weisman’s]] standpoint, was that of a second Hippolyta, more accurately known as Antiope, who was Theseus’s wife - and who appears alongside him in "A Midsummer Night’s Dream". Mr. Weisman has speculated that "Hippolyta" was a title for the Amazon Queen, rather than an actual name.'''
