Well Venus is the Roman word for the Greek goddess Aphrodite. I think they would have liked it if Aphrodite was the name for a lovely planet instead of Venus.

Who is the Roman goddess Venus named after?

None of the gods in Greek or Roman mythology are really "named" after anything, sometimes their names mean things in Greek or Latin. Venus was the goddess of love and beauty, and the Greek goddess of love and beauty was Aphrodite. The Romans duplicated all the Greek myths, changing the names to Roman ones, so I guess you could say Venus was named after Aphrodite.
