Evinos
The Evinos ( el, Εύηνος) is a river in western Greece, flowing into the Gulf of Patras. Its source is in the northern Vardousia mountains, near the village Artotina, Phocis. The river flows in a generally southwestern direction, for most of its length in Aetolia-Acarnania. It feeds the reservoir of Lake Evinos, that is about 10 km². The river flows through a deep forested valley with few small villages. In its lower course it flows through lowlands, and it empties into the Gulf of Patras 10 km southeast of Missolonghi.

Euenus
Euenus (or Evenus) of Paros, ( el, Εὔηνος ὁ Πάριος), was a 5th-century BC philosopher and poet who was roughly contemporary with Socrates. Euenus is mentioned several times in Plato's ''Phaedo'', '' Phaedrus'', and '' Apology'' of Socrates. He is quoted in Aristotle's ''Nicomachean Ethics'' (7.10.1152a32) and ''Eudemian Ethics'' (2.7.1223a30). He was apparently, although obscure, well respected, and was never called a Sophist by Socrates, even though he charged a sizeable sum for teaching students. Sayings *One of his famous sayings is cited twice in: Artemidoros, Oneirocritica 1,15 = Plutarch, Moralia 497A De amore prolis 4: ἢ δέος ἢ λύπη παῖς πατρὶ πάντα χρόνον ("a son is always a terror or a pain for his father."). *"Every thing compelled is by nature grievous", ''Eudemian Ethics'' (2.7.1223a30) *Montaigne quotes him to the effect that fire is the spice of life.Montaigne, ''Essays'' (Penguin 1978) p. 363 Poems Ten short poetic fr ...
