In Greek mythology, Pisinoe or Peisinoe (Ancient Greek: Πεισινόη, romanized: Peisinóē, lit. 'affecting-the-mind', from peisis and noos) may refer to two individuals:
- Pisinoe, also called Peisithoe (Πεισιθόη), one of the Sirens. She was attested as a daughter of the river-god Achelous and the Muse Melpomene[1][2] or Sterope, daughter of King Porthaon of Calydon.[3] She may have two sisters, variously named as Thelxiepeia[1][2][4][5] and Aglaope[1][4] or Molpe[2] or Ligea.[5]
- Pisinoe, a girl living in the neighbourhood of Harmonia, wife of Cadmus.[6]
