Well, Poseidon has a different spelling for his name in Greek but if it is just Poseidon in English in Greek letters it would be: Ποσειδών Poseidon And if you are Greek, you would spell it like: Ποσειδώνας Poseidon Not much of a difference though.
Poseidon is called Poseidon because it is the name of the Greek god of the sea in Greek mythology. Poseidon's name comes from the Greek words "posis" meaning husband or lord, and "dΔta" meaning giver or granter, reflecting his role as the lord and ruler of the seas.
