Eros, the Greek god of love and desire, was associated with the Roman god Cupid. The name "Cupid" comes from the Latin Word "cupiditas," which means desire. As the Romans adopted and adapted Greek mythology, they often renamed deities to fit their own language and cultural context, leading to the transformation of Eros into Cupid, who retained similar attributes of love and attraction.
