No, Helios is NOT another name for Apollo. I have learned that Apollo was thought to be the sun god after a play was preformed (that failed to mentioned Helios). Helios is a Titan, and some confusion is understandable because you may think,"Oh, people say that Apollo is the sun god, and Helios is a Titan." Well, don't get full of yourself, that's not true. I hope that answered your question, enough.
