Electra
Mycenaean royal daughter
Electra is a figure from Greek mythology—the daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra who helped her brother Orestes avenge their father's murder.
The Electra complex, coined by Jung, describes a daughter's unconscious sexual attachment to her father and rivalry with her mother, paralleling Freud's Oedipus complex for sons.
The name appears in astronomy (a star in the Pleiades) and as a given name suggesting tragic intensity.
She had a real Electra complex going on with her dad.
