Stheno (the mighty), Euryale (the far-springer), and Medusa (the queen).
The Three Gorgons are characters from Greek mythology.

They are three winged monstrous sisters called Euryale, Medusa and Stheno, with live snakes for hair and huge teeth and claws.

The term Gorgon is occasionally used to describe an unpleasant or extremely fierce woman, such as my ex-wife.
