| | Republican Roman Names |
| | However, both the well-known Roman statesman Marcus Tullius and his military strategist brother Quintus carried their father's cognomen of Cicero. | | | Indeed, the civil wars that ended the Republican Period, the proscriptions and repeated assassinations that decimated aristocratic and noble families, meant that during the empire many senators and even emperors had slaves in their lineage. | | | However, there were only about 15 praenomen in common usage among Roman families and only two or three of these might be used by a particular family. |
