In Greek mythology, there were at least four different people named Aegle. One belonged to the Hesperides, another to the Heliades, a third a nymph, daughter of Panopeus who was beloved by Theseus, and for whom he forsook Ariadne, and a fourth was a Naiad occasionally considered the mother of the Charites by Helios.
Aegle is also a genus of southern Asian fruit trees, commonly known as the Bael tree.
