Artemis was a GIRL. She was the goddess of the hunt. Second of all she vowed to be a maiden forever. The only man who ever saw her naked saw her when she was bathing in a forest pool. Instead of running for his life he stood there staring until one of Artemis' nymphs noticed him. Artemis turned him into a dear, and sent his own hunting dogs to rip him to shreds.

Who named Artemis?
Artemis was most likely named by her mother, the goddess Leto (a moon goddess), because Leto was the only one around when Artemis was born. Artemis's father was Zeus, and Hera (Zeus's wife) hated Leto because of that. Hera put a curse on Leto that said that Leto was not allowed to rest anywhere on solid ground. However, Leto made it to the island of Ortygia, where she gave birth to Artemis. Artemis then helped Leto deliver Apollo, Artemis's twin brother.
