Cyclops. There were actually a number of Cyclops'
"There are two distinct groups of Cyclopes. In Hesiod's Theogony, Zeus releases the Cyclopes, the sons of Uranus and Gaia, from Tartarus, and receives his characteristic weapon, the thunderbolt, from them; in one of the most famous passages of Homer's Odyssey, the hero Odysseus encounters the Cyclops Polyphemus, the son of Poseidon and Thoosa, who lives with his fellow Cyclopes in a distant country."
They had different names aswell.
Hesiod's Cyclopes:
"Brontes (thunderer), Steropes (flasher) and Arges (brightener),"
Homer's Cyclopes:
"Polyphemus who was a Cyclops. Another member of this group of Cyclopes was Telemus, a seer."
