yes, Venus is Roman, Aphrodite is Greek, but their stories are slightly different. I dont remember all of the details, but i know that Venus in Roman mythology was also a goddess of victory, while Aphrodite only love, beauty and fertility . Pretty much it is the same goddess but with different nationality and slightly different personality :) because of 2 different authors. Greek story was the first one.
