Hegetoria

In Greek mythology, Hegetoria was a nymph who married Ochimus.

They had a daughter, Cydippe, who married Ochimus' brother, Cercaphus, who then inherited the island.

According to an alternate version, Ochimus engaged Cydippe to Ocridion but Cercaphus loved her and kidnapped her. He didn't return until Ochimus was old.
