Vulcan

To the ancient Romans, Vulcan (Greek, Hephaestus) was the god of fire, especially in its fearful aspects. He was also the god of metal working, the smith of the gods. Ironically, this ugly god was the husband of the beautiful Venus.

English word: More than one word comes to us from Vulcan, including volcano, vulcanism, and vulcanize. In "Star Trek," Mr. Spock is from the planet Vulcan. Also, many corporations use Vulcan in their names.
