Nomia

Nomia was a nymph who made Daphnis promise to be faithful to her or else he would be blinded. Her rival, Chimaera, seduced Daphnis when he was drunk, so Nomia carried out her terrible threat. The point of the name seems to be not in this, however, but in the fact that Daphnis had many herds of cattle, for nomos means 'pasture'.
