Uranus (mythology) Uranus (/ËjÊÉrÉnÉs/ or /jÊËreÉªnÉs/; Ancient Greek Î¿á½ÏÎ±Î½ÏÏ, Ouranos [oËranÃ³s] meaning sky or heaven) was the primal Greek god personifying the sky. His name in Roman mythology was Caelus. In Ancient Greek literature, Uranus or Father Sky was the son and husband of Gaia, Mother Earth. According to Hesiod's Theogony, Uranus was conceived by Gaia alone, but other sources cite Aether as his father.
