原Good for a science-fiction novel, possibly, but a child with the name Epimetheus would have some troubles on the playground. Eppie could be an acceptable nickname, but it is more of a female nickname to me. Overall, it is a good name for a fictional character but not for a real person, no.
原Epimetheus was the husband of Pandora in Greek mythology. His brother Prometheus stole fire from Zeus and gave it to man. As "punishment" to Man, Zeus created Pandora, the first woman, for Epimetheus. Prometheus' punishment was I daresay worse. He was strapped to a mountain top and visited by an eagle who ate his liver every day. Since Prometheus was a Titan and therefore practically immortal, his liver grew back every day, so the eagle had to come back, keeping Prometheus in constant agony.

译 好的科幻小说，可能，但一个名字Epimetheus的孩子在操场上会有一些麻烦。 Eppie可以是一个可以接受的绰号，但它更多是一个女性绰号给我。总的来说，这是一个虚构人物的好名字，但不是一个真正的人，不。

译 Epimetheus是潘多拉在希腊神话中的丈夫。他的弟弟普罗米修斯偷走了宙斯的火，并把它给人。作为对人的“惩罚”，宙斯创造了潘多拉，第一个女人，为Epimetheus。普罗米修斯的惩罚是我越来越糟。他被绑在一个山顶，并被一个每天吃了他的肝脏的鹰访问。因为普罗米修斯是一个巨人，因此几乎是不朽的，他的肝脏每天都回来了，所以鹰必须回来，保持普罗米修斯不断的痛苦。
