Calliope was the Muse who presided over epic poetry and eloquence in Greek mythology. She was also the mother of Orpheus.
The name Calliope translates to "beautiful-voiced" from Ancient Greek.
The correct pronunciation of Calliope in English is Kuh-LIE-uh-pee. It is important to note that the second syllable must be stressed when pronouncing her name, as evident in the audio pronunciation. Additionally, the last syllable, which ends with an "e", must be pronounced with an "ee" sound, as is often the case in Greek mythology.
