Bulfinch's Mythology(2K)

BRIMO

the angry or the terrifying, occurs as a surname of several divinities, such as Hecate or Persephone (Argonautica), Demeter, and Cybele.

The Scholiast on Apollonius gives a second derivation of Brimo so that it would refer to the crackling of the fire, as Hecate was conceived bearing a torch.
