Quintus Fabius Maximus Verrucosus Cunctator is a good one to pull from, inventor of the Fabian strategy that sought to feign and evade Hannibal, basically being the father of guerrilla warfare in the West.

Octavinaus or maybe Mars ( the roman god of war ) are good names to start with (at least 4 me )

Apollo, Plutus, Neptune, Mercury, Janus, Vulcan or Bacchus. My favourite is probably Vulcan.

Flavius Petrus Sabbatius Justinianus Augustus, better known as Justinian the I, one of the emporers of the Byzantine Empire. I once thought of starting a Legion playthrough with a courier named Justin as a reference to him. ^^

Robert... Just kidding! And I would suggest Augustus (cliche I know) Romulus, Tyranius, Gaius. Of course you could always take Caesar and make the current Caesar... Disappear

Titus, Lucius, Marcus, Pontius, Decius and Brutus. In case your wondering i didn't think of these off the top of my head, they're all names of well known ancient Romans.

Tyrus, Publius, Aelius, Hadrianus, Trajan, Antonius, Mars, Quietus, et al. Not too hard to find more, just look up any Roman emperor on Wikipedia and read the entry, you'll find lots and lots of names of associates, enemies, and family members.

Hannibal is a favorite that keeps getting mentioned.
Really? You'd get in trouble for saying Naughtius Maximus, Sillious Soddus or, dare I say, Biggus Dickus?
Also, Hannibal was Carthaginian and Rome was one of his greatest enemies.

Biggus Dickus? I know what I'm doing when I get around to my Legion play-through.

LOL glad people got the reference, I just didn't want to risk it. By the way after watching that clip again, now I'll never look at Ceaser and the Legion the same again.
