I really love Mythology in general and as a Greek myself, I'm glad to bear witness to such a rich vocabulary (Kinda bummed out too at the same time, since, let's face it, when your Country's Education System is shit, these chores don't seem to mean anything). Anyway, there are quite a few words I like such as:

Chaos
Olympus
Theos (God)
Titan
Erinyes
Ambrosia
Nektar (Nectar)
Anemoi (Winds)
'Aggelos (Angel)
Daimōn (Demon)
Phoinix (Phoenix)
Drakōn (Serpent)
Harpuiai (Harpies)
Apokalupsis (Apocalypse)
Armageddon
Tartaros
Elysium too
etc.

When it comes to Names in Greek Mythology, I always liked:

Athena
Artemis
Iris
Eris
Dias (As Zeus is commonly called currently in Greece)
Hades
Poseidon
Apollon

Eos

Like maybe even a little too proud. Im just a huge mythology, demonology, angeology nut like you, and with how little Ive been looking into it and how bad my memory has been lately, I always figured I lost all my knowledge but that list that I saw was large yet I still know them made me feel good XD

From the ones you mentioned, only Daphne and Phoebe come from Greek. The same could be said for Isis but then again, its source comes from Egypt !!!!
