The Iliad

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

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

Troy Story.
