Ulick— “mind reward”
…The Romans, likewise, sometimes called him Ulixes; the Greek σσ and ξ being, by some, considered as the same letter. Οδυσσεύς (Odysseus), his true name, is traced to the root δυς (dys), hate, the Sanscrit _dvish_, and from the same source as the Latin _odio_. Italians talked of Uliseo, and Fenelon taught the French to honour his favourite hero as _le fils du grand Ulisse_; but the only place where the name is now used is Ireland, probably as a classicalism for the Danish…
…The Romans, likewise, sometimes called him Ulixes; the Greek σσ and ξ being, by some, considered as the same letter. Οδυσσεύς (Odysseus), his true name, is traced to the root δυς (dys), hate, the Sanscrit _dvish_, and from the same source as the Latin _odio_. Italians talked of Uliseo, and Fenelon taught the French to honour his favourite hero as _le fils du grand Ulisse_; but the only place where the name is now used is Ireland, probably as a classicalism for the Danish legacy of Ulick—Hugleik, or mind reward. The Irish Finnghuala (white shoulders) was not content with the gentle native softenings of her name into Fenella and Nuala, but must needs translate herself into Penelope; and it is to this that we owe the numerous Penelopes of England, down from the Irish Penelope Devereux, with whom is connected the one shade on Sidney’s character, to the Pen and Penny so frequent in many families.
