Uranus has a belt of eleven faint rings. These are narrow rings and are composed of rock and dust which are only a fraction of the size of Saturn's rings:)

Uranus was the lord of the skies and husband of Earth. He was also the king of the gods until his son Saturn overthrew him.Most planets were named after gods.
