Phobos means fear and deimos means terror (I'm Greek so I know this first hand).
In modern Greek only the word phobos is used (actually pronounced a bit softer: phovos) and most Greeks would have problems to identify the meaning of the word deimos.

They are the two moons of the planet mars. Phobos means fear (from where we get the word phobia) and Deimos means panic. They may be asteroids attracted to mars' gravity as moons are not so small. Deimos' diameter is 13 kilometre & phobos' is 22 kilometres.

Phobos:the innermost of the two natural satellites of Mars, both of which are small. It was discovered in 1877 and is ellipsoidal in shape.
Deimos:the outermost of the two natural satellites of Mars. It was discovered in 1877 and there is evidence suggesting that it is a captured asteroid.

You need to re-phase this Q?
But as it stands there are many meanings and you can have your pick.
