Atlas.. a book of maps, he was the god that carried the world on his shoulders.
But that's not really a brand name, if that's what you're looking for.
Venus, the women's razors is named after the Roman goddess Venus of beauty.
There's also Hercules tires.

Ajax for the cleansing type, after a Titan. Nike for the shoe type, after the winged-foot goddess. Trojan for the condom type, after the Trojan race sought after interior the conflict. Venus for many manufacturers, yet rather the razors, after the Roman call for the goddess Aphrodite (they are one and the comparable). And in actuality, do any google seek of '_____ (insert call of god/goddess/hero right here) type', and you will locate some companies that are there yet not nicely-familiar; I did for Athena and Prometheus. wish that enables!
