The belief systems you mention are called Earth based beliefs/religions. I don't believe there is anything else that fits that description other than any who consider themselves neopagan, Goddess worshipping groups, or of Celtic mythology origin.
There are many many hits on the web you'll get if you do searches for" Horned God, Cernunnos, Pan, The Green Man, Herne, the Sun God, who are the same entity. He is the Male representation of the duo God beliefs of the male and female representation, The triple Goddess, Maiden Mother, Crone and the male aspect seen in the Stag, or in the Sun for a couple common such things.
since earth based religion is way older than any of the other religions of today's time, you will not find him in there very easily by the names you now know. In fact, it may be just one aspect or one form of the Male aspect you'd find some resemblance to in other religions. A good place to look perhaps might be the many Gods of the Hindu beliefs, especially the triumvirate gods of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. But you'd have to look hard for some similar personality traits or what they stand for and represent, and even then, it will be only your interpretation and idea. When it cones to the religions, many scholars will continue to debate back and forth their interpretations of the different religions. Here's a couple of sites to check out and theres much more. If you have access to a computer, get going cus there is so much to look for on there and to learn.
