Asteria (Ἀστερία) is the Greek word for "starry" or "of the stars." A Greek Titaness, daughter of Coeus and Phoebe — sister of Leto and **mother of Hekate** by Perses. She transformed into a quail and then into the island of Delos to escape Zeus.
Used widely in modern Greece.
Asteria reduces to three — the number of Greek starry.
