Titanic comes from the word "titans" from Greek Mythology.

The titans were the first gods in greek mythology. The leader (Kronos) like the ship was thought to be invinsable until Zeus killed him and freed his siblings from Kronos stomach. The ship not only took its name from these Mythic creatures, but was also thought to be unsinkable, and was just as shocking to man as was the defeat of Kronos in legand, when it hit the iceberg and sunk.
