Priam, the mythological ruler of Troy, was infamous for yelling at his subjects until he lost his voice

Perhaps that's why they called him the hoarse Trojan.

Since Ilium was another name of Troy, and -ad means "story of" in Ancient Greek, the correct translation of Iliad would be:

Troy Story.

A "helen" could be used as a measurement of beauty, defined as a face that could launch a thousand ships. However, one should not use a "millihelen" to mean that a face could only launch one ship...

...because you shouldn't put metric prefixes on Troy units.

I cried when my son asked me for a bookmark.

He's 14. You'd think that by now he'd know my name is Troy.

The Iliad

The Iliad is called that because Ilium was another name for Troy, and the -ad suffix used to mean β€œThe Story of”. So, if we translated the title, The Iliad should actually be called Troy Story

Dad joked in email from co-worker

Three of us are discussing a mundane topic through group email at work. I reply to one co-worker's comment and she writes back to the other guy in the chain " Troy, can you please weigh in"? A few minutes later, his response comes through : " Yes, last time I checked, I weighed in at about 198 or 200, but it tends to fluctuate. Hope this helps. "
