Index to Roman Surnames

Recommended Posts

The following is an index to my Roman Surnames series, in which I have attempted to list and define the various surnames used by notable gentes of the Republic.

 

For the purpose of this list, I have included cognomina, adoptive cognomina, and agnomina under the collective term of "surnames."

 

This index, as also my Roman Surnames series, is a work in progress. Surnames will continue to be added to this index with each addition of a gens to my series.

Thanks, Klingan and Formosus!

 

I have so far defined 234 surnames of the Republic (including spelling variations), and I'm currently working on my next gens, which will add some more names to this list.

Great work! Is there any way to determine an Italian surname origin as being Roman?  Example Massimei, Palumbi, Gaeta, Is there a way to determine if there origins where Roman.  

 

Thank you,

Artena
