- Adrasta, also Adrasteia, a daughter of Oceanus and possibly Tethys, thus considered to be one of the Oceanids. Together with her sisters Eidothea and Althaea (Amalthea[2]) were nurses of young Zeus.[3]
- Adraste, one of the companions of Helen when Telemachus came to Sparta seeking news of Odysseus. When Helen appeared to greet him, Adraste placed a chair for her, and Alcippe brought a rug of soft wool.[4]
