There are many things that derive their names from the goddess of love, but in Latin and Greek. Aphrodisiacs are love potions. Hermaphrodites are people both with both male and female sex organs (shared with Hermes). Venus was named after the goddess of love because it was the most beautiful object in the night sky (the Romans called it Lucifer and later then renamed it Venus).
