Roman God: Cupid 
Greek Name: Eros

Cupid was the son of Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. 

When Cupid shot his little arrows into an unwary victim, that victim fell in love with the very next person they saw!  

You would not think the gods would need help falling in love, as they seemed to do that all the time. But his arrows worked on mortals as well as deities, which, according to myth, caused the Romans all kinds of trouble!
