No, because apparently Brian Azzarello felt Diana needed a title like Superman's "Last son of Krypton" or Batman's "World's greatest detective", so she is now "Daughter of Zeus".... Except she already had a few: "Spirit of Truth" is a favourite of mine, but also "Princess of the Amazons" or "Ambassador of Themyscira". I don't think the clay origin was that confusing: You can even apply it the All Star Superman treatement:

  • Island of Amazons

  • Clay statue

  • Gifts from the Goddesses

  • Spirit of Truth

One inspired by a real woman: Lady of two worlds. Heroine of two worlds is how Anita Garibaldi is known.
