When Aeneas has a chance to kill Helen he definitely wants to but his mother Venus (Aphrodite) warns him not to so he listens to her and doesn't kill Helen.
Dido was abandoned by Aeneas, as Mercury told Aeneas that he must travel to Italy and leave Dido, as Mercury reminds Aeneas that Dido is not part of his fate. Dido proceeds to kill herself out of sorrow by stabbing herself with an "ensis" (sword).
Aeneas is a Latin name. The whole legend of Aeneas is of Latin origin.
Throughout the Aeneid Aeneas follows the will of the Gods (which is also Fate). Aeneas is fated to kill Turnus, so that the Roman race can establish itself in Italy. It is Aeneas' duty to follow his destiny, since resisting destiny is to resist the will of the gods. Vergil in many ways has ideas which closely anticipate the thinking of the Christians who would arrive a few generations later. The idea of submitting one's personal desires to the will of god is very Christian. (Aeneas does it by leaving Dido, Christ did it in the Garden of Gethsemane).
