365 Degrees

Brother and sister - Athena and Phevos - the mascots for the Athens 2004 Olympics. They are named after two Greek gods



Ollie the kookaburra, Syd the platypus and Millie the echidna, from Sydney 2000. They represent the earth, air and water



Izzy from Atlanta 1996. The name comes from Whatizit? because no one really knew exactly what Izzy was

Hodori the Tiger from Seoul 1988. The mascot's name was chosen from a list of 2,295 names submitted by the public


Sam the Eagle from Los Angeles 1984. He was chosen because the imposing bald eagle is the symbol of the USA
