So the boys would be named Julius and the girls Julia
The family would be called the Julii
The praenomen was the chosen name from the parents
Then you would have a cognomen, which is something about you- romans changed names all the time
It was common, especially among aristocrats, for a mentor to adopt an adult mentee
As a sign of respect and allegiance
And the man or woman would change their nomen
The praenoma of women came from their mothers though
Sometimes, just like first boys are sometimes named Junior, III, IV
No that was definately the norm
Sometimes
And familes would recycle their names
Yeah, for boys and girls
We do that now too
Yup
But to a larger extent
Among patricians yes
But our upper classes do it more than lower classes too
But yeah if you look at the actual names of emperors itโs like oh look another gaius Julius

The mental illness Gender Dysphoria was always something to look down apon until the left decided that the mental illness was a "right"
Nnnnope
Thatโs just not an accurate historical statement.
It was looked down upon in the western Roman Empire, thatโs where we get it from.
Ancient Greeks were never caught up with gay or straight, everyone was bisexual. It never mattered who you slept with, just if they had power or not
That was more of a Roman thing actually
Greeks cared less about the top/bottom distinction and a little more squeamish about infidelity
Why is it illegal to question an so called "historical event" in 18 countries?
here is a historic fact
Fuck yourself
