Nephele Posted September 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Flavius Valerius Constantinus, you're a crafty Clodian whose family altered the spelling of their patrician gens name as a political maneuver. T. Clodius Nonus (ConigDoTnhhuh -ghhh +luss) ********************************************** Gaius Octavius, the hidden "Romans" in the Roman names you gave me reveal the first to be of Hebrew descent with imperialistic aspirations. The second is rebellious slave turned inquisitive Caledonian. Caius Iulius Caesar = C. Isaacius Aurelius Marcus Porcius Cato = Spartaco McCurious ***************************************************************** Ursus, you are descended from a Roman soldier who spent his final days in Eburacum, where his name was discovered inscribed on his tombstone. Your cognomen indicates a family fondness for eels -- rather than bears. M. Aeresius Murena (rjmamsajreebeey -bejjy +iusun) ********************************************************************* Spurius, you belong to the same crafty Clodian gens as Flavius V.C. above. D. Clodius Romanus (DROAOYWMKOCNODL -koowy +iusus) Great sig, btw. Gotta love that Ambrose Bierce. ********************************************************************** Antiochus of Seleucia, you're descended from one of Rome's most celebrated historians. Your cognomen of "Dento" indicates that your own writing has a bite to it. M. Suetonius Dento (tjehoiohdmneasn -ahhj +uust) -- Nepilla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursus Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Gratias. Strange, I've never felt particularly martial or British. I suppose I shall march for five miles and then settle down to tea and crumpets.

Nephele Posted September 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Julius Ratus, yours was a tough one -- I had to make you an orphan. Poor you. You were originally a member of the Fonteius gens, but you were adopted by Decimus Fadius Nepos. According to custom, you took the name of your adoptive father, but kept your original name of Fonteius as your adoptive cognomina... D.

Nephele Posted September 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 docoflove1974, your scramble is a bit long to work with.
