The name of Deneb is derived from the [[Arabic ]] word for tail, dhaneb, that originated in the phrase Dhanab ad-Dajājah, or "''tail of the hen''" (Arabic: ذنب الدجاجة). In [[China]], Deneb is referred to as 天津四 (the Fourth Star of the Celestial Ford). The star is featured in the Chinese mythological story of Qi Xi, where Deneb is either the marker for the location of the magpie bridge across the [[Milky Way]], or as the fairy chaperon for the magpie bridge so that the lovers ''Niu Lang '' ([[Altair]]) and ''Zhi Nü '' ([[Vega]]) may be reunited for one night a year during the summer. The star is also known by several other names from various cultures, including ''Deneb Adige'', ''Denebadigege'', ''Denebedigege'', ''Aridf'', ''Al Ridf'', ''Gallina '' ("''the hindmost''"), and ''Os rosae '' (in [[German]])<ref>Richard Hinckley Allen, Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning (1963), p. 195.</ref>.
