Yes, the horse that Kirk Douglas rode in "Spartacus" was named "Kirk." This same horse was also featured in other films with Douglas, including "The Last Train from Gun Hill." The horse became somewhat iconic due to its association with the actor in these notable roles.
Earlier in his career the studio was responsible for hiring any animals that were needed in movies. Later on he owned the horses he rode in his movies. They were usually chestnuts with socks and a blaze. The horse he owned at the time of his death was a 16 hand quarter horse named Dollar. He was sold for $15,000.
I think in Cahill:US Marshal Wayne was forced to ride a mule (donkey/horse cross) due to lack of a better mount. There may have been other movies where he rode a mule but I can't remember.
Robin Hood, The Aristocats, The Fox and the Hound, and other movies
There are six episodes and nine other films.
Yes
The horse in "The Outlaw Jose Wales" did have a name. The horse's name was Parsons. Parsons was used in several other movies.
Spartacus escaped in 1983 when he led 80 other slaves in the third serville war with the Romans

Historical events showed Gannicus as one of the rebel commanders under the leadership of Spartacus. Spartacus outlast all of his commanders during the 3rd serville war. I believe Spartacus tactics in combat would have given him the edge if pitted against any of the other gladiator commanders.
Spartacus died by a Roman senator called Crassus, He crucified Spartacus along with 6000 other slaves. This was to warn slaves not to try and destroy the Roman Empire. Hope this helps :)
There is no other name on record except Spartacus. Almost nothing is known of the man before his enslavement. Also we don't even know if "Spartacus" was the man's real name. It could very well have been a pseudonym that he used. The name Spartacus connoted the city of Sparta, known for its fighters, and would fit very well as a stage name for a gladiator.

Spartacus was not the sole leader of the slave revolt in 73 BC in Capua. His leadership was shared & helped by two other slaves; Crixus, a Gallic slave and by the German slave, Oenomaus.
take look at the spartacus blood and sand episode's after Spartacus became a champion. He start the fight in Dimachaeri style with 2 swords and he is faster than any other gladiators.
Prior to being selected to direct the 1960 version of Spartacus, Stanley Kubrick had directed only four other films. Based on the cost, scope and quality of the main actors this was a major project for the young director. Kubrick was only 21 years of age when he directed Spartacus. His claim to fame was his direction of the film Paths of Glory which placed his name among the international film world. Kubrick had prior to being a director, began his climb to Hollywood fame as a magazine photographer.
