All other planets in our solar system are named after Roman deities: Mercury (messenger god), Venus (goddess of love), Mars (war god), Jupiter (king of gods), Saturn (god of agriculture), Uranus (god of sky), and Neptune (god of sea). Earth comes from Old English/Germanic words meaning ground or soil, making it the only planet not named after a pagan god.
