Answer: Janus's Name in Greek mythology is Ianus. Many of the Roman gods were actually Greek before the Romans conquered them and incorporated their gods into the Roman religion.
Poseidon is the Greek god of the sea, earthquakes, and horses. He is often depicted with a trident, which he uses to control the seas. As one of the twelve Olympian gods, Poseidon held great power and influence in ancient Greek mythology.
In Roman mythology, the thunderbolt is a weapon given to Jupiter by the Cyclops.
The name of the Roman god that means "shining father" is Jupiter.
The Roman blacksmith god is Vulcan (known as Hephaestus in Greek mythology). He is the god of fire, metalworking, and volcanoes. Vulcan is often depicted as a skilled craftsman who forges weapons and armor for the gods.
The Roman god of forge is Vulcan. He is the equivalent of the Greek god Hephaestus and is associated with fire, metalworking, and craftsmanship. Vulcan was believed to have his forge located beneath Mount Etna in Sicily.
Janus is a Roman god, and not minor to the minds of ancient Romans.
Ianus was a purely Roman god, and wasn't in any of the Greek myths.
None. Janus was a Roman god that didn't really have a Greek counterpart.

Roman and Greek authors agree that Janus (January) was exclusively a Roman God. January is the first month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars. January is named after the Latin name for door, since January is the door of the New Year. Janus was the God of beginnings and transitions in Roman mythology.
Couple of points: 1. Janus wasn't a Greek god, he was purely Roman. He was the God of beginnings and doorways, and in their pantheon was the first god. 2. The Romans didn't always have animal companions for their gods, thusly Janus had no animal as a favorite.
