Name origin

Does anyone know how Io got its name? Is it from input/output? From the daughter of Inachus in Greek mythology? From the moon of Jupiter? From the Hawaiian species of hawk? Some kind of pictorial representation? Or just out of the air? I'm curious. Deco 23:00, 13 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
