Because "llium" was another name for Troy, and the "-ad" suffix was used to mean "The Story of."

This means that, if you translated the title a certain way, The lliad could actually be called...

Troy Story.

Just because I have 99% of a heart doesn't mean it can't kill me. It's tried. Twice.
My body has a dongle and my heart doesn't care. The one thing we agree on.

They call it the Odyssey because it was about all the odd shit ya see when you try to get the fuck out of Troy.
