The name Cydippe (Ancient Greek: Κυδίππη Kudíppē) is attributed to four individuals in Greek mythology.
Cydippe, one of the 50 Nereids, sea-nymph daughters of the 'Old Man of the Sea' Nereus and the Oceanid Doris.[1][2] She was in the train of Cyrene along with her sisters.[3]
Cydippe, also called Crybia or Lysippe,[4] the daughter of the nymph Hegetoria and Ochimus, king of Rhodes. She married her paternal uncle, Cercaphus, who inherited the island.[5] According to an alternate version, Ochimus engaged Cydippe to Ocridion but Cercaphus loved her and kidnapped her. He did not return until Ochimus was old.[6] Cydippe was by Cercaphus the mother of Cameirus, Ialysus, and Lindes. Each of them founded a town in Rhodes and named it after himself.[7]
Cydippe, mother of Cleobis and Biton.[8]
Cydippe, an Athenian girl who was obliged to marry Acontius.[9]
