Juno

Queen of heaven

Juno is the Roman goddess of marriage, childbirth, and women, equivalent to the Greek Hera and wife of Jupiter.

The month of June takes its name from her, making it traditionally auspicious for weddings.

In astronomy, Juno is also a large asteroid discovered in 1804, one of the first identified in the asteroid belt.

The name has seen renewed use as a given name for girls, partly influenced by the 2007 film of that title.
