The Greek god Iris, who is the personification of the rainbow and the messenger of the gods, is known by the same name in Roman mythology. In Roman mythology, deities were often directly adopted from Greek mythology with little to no change in name or attributes. Therefore, Iris retains her name and role as the messenger of the gods in both Greek and Roman mythology.
Iris appears in ancient Greek vase painting as a beautiful young woman with golden wings, a herald's rod (kerykeion), and sometimes a water-pitcher (oinochoe) in her hand. She was usually depicted standing beside Zeus or Hera, sometimes serving nectar from her jug. As cup-bearer of the gods Iris is often indistinguishable from Hebe in art.
Iris does not have roman name. She is the goddess of Rainbows and the messenger of gods. Her symbol is a purple Iris and music notes. She is sometimes depicted with golden wings on her shoulders.
