- Iphianassa, one of the 50 Nereids, marine-nymph daughters of the 'Old Man of the Sea' Nereus and the Oceanid Doris.
- Iphianassa, consort of King Endymion of Elis and mother of Aetolus. The wife of Endymion was otherwise known as Asterodia, Chromia, Hyperippe or a nameless Naiad nymph.
- Iphianassa, one of the three Proetids, daughters of the Argive king Proetus by Stheneboea who were purified of their madness by Melampus. Iphianassa eventually married Melampus.
