This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
It's called the milky way because of Heracles since he bit his mom's tit so hard the milk sprayed all over the sky.
This is what Wikipedia has to say about it:
That Zeus. He’s such a character. Not only does he sleep around on Hera (you know, his ~~sister~~ wife), but then surreptitiously tries to get Hera to breast-feed his bastard son. But I digress…
I feel this deserves more attention. Not only is the Milky Way named for literal milk; it is named for specifically for human milk.
