IG 14.2420, but twentieth of the Ion. alphabet: as numeral υʹ = 400, but ͵υ = 400,000. It is called τὸ ὖ by Pl. Cra. 393d, Callias ap. Ath. 10.453d (prob., the line ends ταῦ, <τὸ> ὖ), IG 2(2).2783.4 (iv B. C.), Hellad. ap. Phot. Bibl. p.530 B.; τό τʼ ὖ or τό θʼ ὗ might be read in Achae. 33.3 for τοῦ ῡ codd. Ath.; later τὸ υ ψιλόν or τὸ ψιλὸν υ (as name of the first letter of ὕαλος, υἱός, etc.), Theognost. Can. 18, Sch. Ar. Pl. 896, Ps. Hdn. Epim. 116, 137, al.: so named to distinguish it from ἡ ο͡ι δίφθογγος, υ and οι being pronounced alike in late Gr.; ὗ is aspirated in AP 9.385.20 (Steph.Gramm.), 11.67.1 ( Myrin.) cod.Pal.; the Coptic name he (cf. Arm. hiun) may indicate that the early name was ὗ, which seems also to be implied by Serv. ad Verg. A. 1.744: alii dicunt Hyadas dictas vel ab Y littera, vel ἀπὸ τοῦ ὑός, cf. Sch. Il. 18.486: the sign Y represents hy on coins of P. Plautius Hypsaeus (58 B.C.), which are inscribed Ypsae, BMus.Cat.Republ.Coins, Plate 48 Nos. 2, 3, 4, 5, but Hupsae, Nos. 13, 14, Plate 123 Nos.7,8,9.
