It's unbelievable, but true. One gets to know the true meaning of the word Nike when you are interested in the footwear and sportswear brand when you should be interested in the Greek mythology. But anyway, that's the way it is. Nike is the name of the greek goddess of victory. She is depicted as a young woman with wings, who runs at high speed and is a skilled float driver.

Those are its strengths, but its main weakness is that it is usually very capricious when it comes to distributing the victory. She is the daughter of Styx, generally considered a nymph but in reality she is the spirit of the greatest river in the Underworld, the Pallas, and Titan is her father. He has three brothers, Zelos, Kratos and Bia, with whom they are in turn rivalry, strength and strength. She is not married and has no children.

    I REMEMBER THAT THE WORD "NIKE" WAS USED BY A BYZANTINE QUEEN. WHO WAS THE ONE WHO LEAD THE FIGHT TO COUNTER A REBELLION AGAINST THE KING, HER HUSBAND. I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT THIS QUEEN WAS NAME.

    Gentlemen, the word nike corresponding to the brand, comes from the Greek nenikhamen or nenikeamen which means we have won, this commemorates the 42 kilometer race from marathon to athens where this anonymous soldier pronounced these famous words NENIKEAMEN from where the derivative NIKE comes from which means Victory, it is important to know this because this is the distance that runs in the long distance which this soldier ran in ancient times to warn his people of victory and so they do not leave Athens; the Greeks were few and the defeat was imminent after the great army, however they defeated the enemy army and therefore they must remember the brand of their sports product neNIKEamen, we have won, victory.
