For what it’s worth:
Minya is the capital of Minya Governorate in Upper Egypt. It is located approximately 245 km (152 mi) south of Cairo on the western bank of the Nile River, which flows north through the city. The name of the city is derived from its Ancient Egyptian name Men'at Khufu, meaning the mother city of Khufu, linking it to the Pharaoh Khufu or Cheops, founder of the Great Pyramid at Giza.
Natassa in The Last of the Centaurs
Natassa Theodoridou was born around 1970 in Drama, is a well-known Greek singer and the only female Greek artist to have her first three albums achieve platinum status. She’s sold something like half a million CDs. She does a killer version of The 13th Commandment.
Orestes in The Furies
In Greek mythology, Orestes was the son of Clytemnestra and Agamemnon. He is the subject of several Ancient Greek plays and of various myths connected with his madness and purification, which retain obscure threads of much older ones. Orestes’ root meaning is mountain.
Orestes is a play by Euripides that follows the events of Orestes after he had murdered his mother.
And Orestes is a character in Sophocles' tragedy Electra and in Aeschylus' trilogy of tragedies, Oresteia.
The name also appears among the elite of Rome.

Rhea in Ties That Bind
Rhea was the Titan daughter of the sky god Uranus and the earth goddess Gaia, in Greek mythology. In early traditions, she was known as "the mother of gods" and was therefore strongly associated with Gaia and Cybele, who had similar functions. The classical Greeks saw her as the mother of the Olympian gods and goddesses, but not as an Olympian goddess in her own right. The Romans identified her with Magna Mater (their form of Cybele).
Rhea is the second-largest moon of Saturn and the ninth largest moon in the Solar System.

The Rheingold
Gabs: What? Xena (eyeing Gabs' plate): You gonna finish that? G: All of it. X: I thought the portions here are kind of small. G (waving her fork menacingly): You're not getting mine. X: Come on, Gabrielle, you're playing with your food. G: I'm relishing it.
Somehow, cutlery was usually there as a weapon, or the threat of a weapon.

Hades in Death With Chains
Hades was the god of the underworld. Eventually, the god's name came to designate the abode of the dead. But in Greek mythology, Hades is the oldest male child of Cronus and Rhea if you go by the order of birth by Rhea. If you follow the regurgitation by Cronus. At least, thus spoke Poseidon in the Iliad.
