Iliad
Refers to stories about tragic love in times of conflict
You know how we use "odyssey" from Homer's Odyssey to refer to long and winding journeys?
How about a term based on Homer's other epic?


Bathsheban
A story theme revolving around a bathing beauty who gets captured by a voyeur
This refers to an account in the Bible verse 2 Samuel 11 in which David (of "and Goliath" fame) spies on a maiden called Bathsheba who is bathing, and then he sends his servants to get her and...let's just say it doesn't end well for her.
I've seen this folktale theme referred to as "the Swan Maiden" or "the Animal Bride", and I even once referred to it as "the Bathing Bride".
Eventually, I settled on "Bathsheban" because it sounds cooler than these rather mundane terms, and also works very well as a play on words due to the first four letters of her name.

Oisin effect

Post-Titanomachy Generation
The Olympian gods born after the Titanomachy
All children of Zeus through several of his multiple affairs
These include Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Hermes, Ares, Hephaestus, and Dionysus.


Mermaid's Corpse
Sea foam
In the original Little Mermaid story by Hans Christian Andersen, the nameless main character dies and turns to sea foam.
Because of this, I have come to think of the foam of the ocean waters as the remains of dead mermaids.
