Fun Facts pertaining to Greek Myth

A friend of mine is currently attending Niagara University, a school very close to the Niagara Falls on the Canadian border. She mentioned how her friends wanted to go to Iris falls, or more commonly known as Bridal Veil Falls. Wondering why there were two different names for this, I googled Iris Falls and discovered that it is called Iris after the Greek Goddess of rainbows, Iris. Rainbows are commonly seen at Bridal Veil Falls and therefore the name was adopted.
