Cyclops??

There appears to be three group names in the newest test....Steropes, Brontes and Polyphemus.

Here are the wiki pages for the 3 cyclops Polyphemus, Steropes and Brontes

Wikipedia also has this to say about the cyclops and the test: After completing the test, users are placed in new groups, one of which is "Steropes", one "Polyphemus", and finally "Brontes". All three are Cyclopes in Greek mythology. Steropes and Brontes appear in Heriod's poem "Theogony" as two of three main Cyclopes. It is notable that rather than using the character Arges as the final group name, Polyphemus is instead used. He is mentioned separately in Homer's "Odyssey", and plays a pivotal role in the poem.


Both of the last 2 group names have also been important in Greek mythology.
Ganymede and Pandora BUT also Ganymede and Pandora are both satellites within our solar system. Pandora (moon) Ganymede (moon)

There's a LOT of Greek mythology in there so maybe one of our mythologists can help us out with any linkage anywhere.
