Isn’t the name of the sun Helios? I thought Sol was more like a title or description… like “mom” or “dad”, but for planets.
It’s probably my Swedish upbringing then.
In Swedish, “sun” translates directly to “sol”. And we have different forms, like “solen” -> “the sun”, “solar” -> “suns”, “solarna” -> “the suns” etc.
But we don’t have different forms for proper names.
