Mythology

One allusion i found in modern day technology would be the brand Venus razors. Venus was the goddess of beauty and love, and considering a razor is a beauty product for women, it makes sense to name the company after that.

The second one i found was for Trident gum. Poseidon, the god of the Sea's weapon was a three prong called the Trident. Trident gum has three flavors and a trident had three prongs. Also tri- means three, and donti- means tooth.
