And that Australia gets its name indirectly from the Roman equivalent of the Greek god of the south wind?
.. Auster, the embodiment of a southerly wind which brings cloudy weather, powerful winds and rain to southern Europe. Auster named the compass point Australis (south).
Australia derives its name from the Latin Terra Australis ("Southern Land"), a name used for a hypothetical continent in the Southern Hemisphere since ancient times.
