Aeolus's Greek and Roman names are the same.
One of Aeolus's symbols related to him is his 4 sons.Zephyr-West,Boreas-North,Notus-South,Eurus-East. Other symbols are his wind/storm bags and him blowing to create wind.
Most pictures of Aeolus show him blowing at the Earth, a tree,an ocean,etc.
In the Odyssey, Odysseus and his crew land on the island of Aeolia, Aeolus’s home. After a month of humoring him, Aeolus promises to give him a steady ride home, and gives him storm winds if needed. They could see Ithaka and the crew got greedy so they opened the bag of storm winds which sent them back all the way to the island of Aeolia. Odysseus asked Aeolus if he could have another steady breeze home, and he kicked them out of his castle.
Some of Aeolus's powers are he controls the winds and releases storms when told to.
His parents are Helen and a nymph named Orseïs
