According to Herodotus Labda (Greek: Λάβδα) was a daughter of the Bacchiad Amphion and mother of Cypselus by Eetion. Her name was derived from the fact of her feet being turned outward and thus resembling the letter lambda (Λ) which by the accounts of the most ancient Greek grammarians was originally pronounced labda [labda].
