Wait, just to make sure, you became the river god Scamander after your mortal form was killed? That's like... ascending to godhood, isn't it?
"Sure is!" she nods. "The Olympians were super mad, but there always has to be fifty of us, and we're not undying like them since we don't have any of those flashy apples, so we need to replenish our ranks somehow. But that's nothing to do with my name from when I was mortal."

"Yep! Achilles and I are good frenemies. I wanna fight him again if we get the chance, without fate or the gods weighing us down. I wanna see who's really stronger."

Fifty... are you one of the Nereids?
"Hohhhh? So you're a Servant now, you haughty fuck?" she grins. "Fantastic. Yeah. I'd LOVE to go a round or two with the bitch who called me a horse. I mean, why not? Hephaestus only got me because I was already bleeding out. No wonder you make us humans do your dirty work for you, weaklings!"
"Yeah, they were watching over the whole war. I became one myself after I joined with the river. You can probably find my divine name in one of the lists, actually."

I don't have a guess to make rn but I'd like to take the next round if that's fine with everyone lol
Memnon maybe?
Is the "horse" nickname a purely original Athena invention, or does your nereid name, um... already has something referring to horses?
"I should sew your mouth shut. Your face looks even longer when you do not shut your mouth~ Is that why you are in this class, horseface? Does your face count as a lance~?
Do you know why the Chaldea Staff here needs so much time to guess your many names? Because you are so insignificant that people forgot your name all the time~
We are at 4 names now, right? Skamandrus, Xanthus, your Nereide name and your human name? Way to make your story known haha! I add Xanthodontous to your names~"

"No way. The gods loved that guy. He was like a divinely-ordained foil to Achilles. They wanted me dead for daring to interfere with their golden boy."
"Laugh it up, you smarmy whore, but I've got three spears if you count this!"

I'm not sure quite what's going on but between any of your names were you Asteropaios by any chance? Actually, the remark about the dual spears pretty much assures it IMO. I've never heard the legend of being incinerated by Hephaestus but maybe that's from another of her epithets. Also if that is the case you'd be the second after me who elected to genderbend this figure.

I also thought of this guy, except he received blessing from Scamander, and there's no mention about him facing Athena or Hephaistus.
I feel like we should be in the final stretch now, but I still can't find that nereid name.
Might as well enjoy the whole Lancer vs. Athena rematch thing now and hope she drops more clues.
The only thing I can think of for the Hephaestus thing is that he did intervene to save Achilles from drowning when the river Scamander tried to attack him after his grandson's death. Maybe that could be spun as incinerating her? In any case it's kind of hard to guess this figure with like three different identities juggling around.

"That's the one! That's my last name!" she folds her arms. "Take that, O mighty chickenhead! People remember me, even if you tried to wipe me out! And now--!"
"Great, good stuff, glad we sorted this out, we're leaving."
"S-Saber?! Hey, let go, this is my round!"
"Game over. No fighting in the thread."
"Didn't you beat the shit out of a literal child?!"
"If you don't stop acting like one, I'll beat the shit out of you too."
"Guh...! I'll be back for you, bitch...!"

The divine name is Xantho, she already told us.
And Italian Wikipedia does mention the whole Haephestus thing in regards to Asteropaios - or rather, says Haephestus set the river on fire after Asteropaios's death to keep the river from going up against Achilles - so I'm pretty sure Royd got it lol
