Son of Laius and Jocasta in Greek mythology (7)

I believe the answer is:

oedipus

(Other definitions for oedipus that I've seen before include "Tragic Greek king in Opus Dei" , "King of Thebes who married his mother" , "Mythical Greek who killed his father and married his mother" , "Mythical Greek king of Thebes" , "Mythological patricide" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
