Project Mercury - Wikipedia

Project Mercury was officially approved on October 7, 1958 and publicly announced on December 17. Originally called Project Astronaut, President Dwight Eisenhower felt that gave too much attention to the pilot. Instead, the name was chosen from classical mythology, which had already lent names to rockets like the Greek and Roman for the SM-65 and PGM-19 missiles.
