Hi, Don't forget he also took liberty with Hercules, although that one makes sense as well.

Funny, I mostly prefer the griek names, eg, Zeus instead of Jupiter, and Athena instead of Minerva, but Cerberus seems to be the exception as to me it sounds far more evil than Kerberos. I suspect this is why Rick Riorden in the Percy Jaxon series does exactly the same thing, using cerberus even though he uses griek names for everything else, ---- eg Hades rather than pluto, and sinse he's reputedly a professor of mythology and the books areactually pretty complete on their myth background (one of imho the best things about them), I suspect this is just artistic freedom too.
