Greetings,

I'm looking for any kind of ancient Greek diagrams which show the
Greek names of the "seven heavenly objects" and other bodies in our
solar system which are depicted in the following diagram:

Are there similar ancient Greek diagrams which show the names
of the planets in Greek, in the same "earth-centered" model
of our universe?

I would appreciate any links anyone can provide...

'Lo Elroy --

This probably isn't what you need, but for those who might
want those Greek names, check the following...

This link might be closer to what you need...

It's the closest i could come after an extensive web search.

This one was interesting also...

I'm curious what modern Greek-speaking people call the planet
most of us call Jupiter. Do they still refer to it as Zeus, or
Zeus-pater, perhaps?

or Zeupiter? (g French, i believe)
