I asume you meet to put Romans and this was because when the Romans took over Greece they adopted Greek culture but put it in their own language. The Romans also added some new gods like Bellona the goddess of war.
The meaning of Vesta is the same as Hestia; they were originally separate goddesses from different peoples - that of the Greeks and the Romans, who came to interchange the names of the goddesses so they became "the same". There are similarities, as well as differences.
The Romans referred to the moon as Luna. The Greeks called it Selene. Both names were the names of their respective lunar Goddesses.
A god or goddesses name was often part of a child's name - such as with Heracles - "Hera".
Thecnically the Greeks didnt have any 'ideas' about the gods. Greek, Roman and Egiptian gods all originated in anchent Sumaria. All those cultures share the same gods and goddesses as well as their idea of creation, they just have different names for them.
The names by which the Romans called the Greek gods and goddesses are their own gods and goddesses who they associated with those of the Greeks, over time the two became so entwined that today they are viewed as "another name" of one god; when it is important to remember they were originally separate deities and have sometimes widely different habits and beliefs that surround them.

Greek mythology came first. Then the Romans came. They admired the gods and goddesses of the Greeks and copied. The Roman gods and goddesses and more disciplined and war-like. Because Greek and Roman mythology things can't have the same name, Romans changed the names.
Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma
They didn't give then "new" names. They combined their existing mythos with that of the Greeks, replacing Greek names with Latin when appropriate. Some, like Apollo and Prometheus, had names that already worked, so they weren't changed.
The Greeks did not actually influence Roman religion. The Greeks and Romans worshiped the same major gods only under different names. The same can be said of other cultures. It seems that the ancient deities were universal even though they were called by different names.The Greeks did not actually influence Roman religion.

There are many names, and in some cases, the names and titles of a goddess number into near the hundreds. We are yet still uncovering more goddesses.
Roman gods and goddesses are pretty much the same, they just have different names.
