Latin: Demeter

→ Russian: Деме́тра (Demétra)

The second half is generally believed to be μήτηρ (mḗtēr, “mother”). The first element, δᾶ (dâ), is classically explained as the Attic/Ionic variant of an archaic Doric form of γῆ (gê, “earth”); other theories include a connection with Albanian dhe (“earth”) or χθών (khthṓn, “ground, earth”).
The supposed Aeolic form Δωμάτηρ (Dōmátēr) is only attested through a reconstructed inscription from the 2nd century B.C. in Aigai. The inscription reads []ω[]ατρος ([]ō[]atros), which has been read, as reported in Richard Bohn's "Altertümer von Aegae" as a genitive form of Δωμάτηρ (Dōmátēr). However, as Chantraine says, "The dialectal forms, notably Δωμάτηρ (Dōmátēr), don't offer any help to etymology," and it's disputable whether the inscription reads as such.

Coptic: ⲇⲓⲟⲛⲩⲥⲟⲥ (dionusos)

Greek: Διόνυσος (Diónysos)

Latin: Dionȳsus

Attested in Mycenaean Greek (13th to 12th century B.C.E.) as 𐀇𐀺𐀝𐀰 (di-wo-nu-so). Dialectal variants include Διένῡσος (Diénūsos), Δεύνῡσος (Deúnūsos), Δίννῡσος (Dínnūsos) and others.
Popular etymology often connected it with Διός (Diós), the genitive of Ζεύς (Zeús, “Zeus”).
The dio- forms are probably built by analogy from an original stem die-. The compound die-nūs-os is analysed as from a verbal stem die- (from δίεμαι (díemai, “to chase, to impel”)). The nūs- element gave rise to a toponym Νῦσα (Nûsa, “Nysa”), a mountain where the god was nursed by nymphs (the Nysiads, Nysa is also the name given to one of these nymphs). According to the testimony of Pherecydes of Syros (6th c. B.C.E.), nūsa is a word for "tree". Janda (Die Musik nach dem Chaos, 2010) suggests an original meaning of "impeller of the (world-)tree" (the axis mundi), connecting the god with archaic cosmology. The close association or indeed identity of Dionysus with a tree (especially the fig tree) is well attested in the classical period.

→ Old Armenian: Եւրոպա (Ewropa), Եւրոպիա (Ewropia)

Uncertain, but either from:
* εὐρύς (eurús) + ὤψ (ṓps), literally meaning "wide face" (as a description of the beauty of the mythical Europa) or "broad eye" (metaphorically meaning something like "as far as the eye can see")
* Semitic origin; compare also Ἀσία (Asía), related to
** Akkadian 𒀭𒌓𒋙𒀀 (ᵈUD.ŠU₂.A /erebu, erbu/, “direction of the setting sun, occident, west”)
** Phoenician 𐤏𐤓𐤁 (ʿrb /ʿereb/, “evening”)
** Hebrew מַעֲרָב (maʿărāḇ, “occident, west”)
** Classical Syriac ܡܥܪܒܐ (maʿrəḇā, “occident, west”)
** Arabic غَرْب (ḡarb, “occident, west”) and غُرُوب (ḡurūb, “setting of the sun”)
** and specifically Aramaic עֲרוּבְתָּא f (ʿărūḇtā, “sunset; eve; Sabbath eve; Friday; Venus, Aphrodite”) of which the absolute state עֲרוּבָא f (ʿărūḇā) in the relevant Northwest Semitic chronolect and isolect would have lacked begedkefet and the second vowel /ɔː/
* From a separate Semitic root related to guarantees and exchanges, found in Arabic عَرَبُون (ʕarabūn, “down payment”), Hebrew בֶּן‑עֲרֻבָּה (ben‑ʿărubbāh, “hostages”), Classical Syriac ܥܪܘܒܐ (ˁārōḇā, “hostages”), stemming from mythology in which Europa is famously abducted; see the story of Cadmus, a figure also with Semitic associations, who seeks after his kidnapped sister.

Possibly composed of the Proto-Indo-European elements *pers-o- (“sheaf of corn, grain, seed”, whence also Sanskrit पर्ष (parṣá-) and perhaps Latin porrum) + *gʷʰn̥-t- (“to strike down, slay”, compare φόνος (phónos, “killer”)) + *-eh₂ (a suffix of feminine agent nouns), thus originally meaning “female thresher of corn”. Compare Rigvedic पर्षान् हन्ति (parṣā́n hanti, “to thresh ears of corn”). Alternatively, from Proto-Indo-European *pers-é-bʰ(h₂)n̥t-ih₂ (“she who brings the light through”), akin to Albanian Prenda.

From Latin Aegipān, from Hellenistic Ancient Greek Αἰγίπαν (Aigípan), from αἴξ (aíx, “goat”) + Πάν (Pán, “Pan”).

there were passages in Pomponius Mela, about the old African Satyrs and Oegipans, over which Usher would sit dreaming for hours.

1839, Edgar Allan Poe, The Fall of the House of Usher:

"No," Shin said, "I don't think that folk who were warned that you were arriving on an ogre would be terrified to learn that an aegipan was part of the group also. Though I'm flattered that you'd consider such a possibility."
