Nomenclature
Quintus's name conforms to the nomenclature of ancient Rome of Eartha'twas. This separates the name into three distinct parts.
- Prenomen: In contemporary Western culture, this constitutes a person's given name. Romans were very traditional with prenomens and it was the norm for eldest sons to bear the same prenomen as their fathers. Quintus' prenomen is Quintus.
- Nomen: Also called the "gens nomen", this is a person's family name or surname. Quintus' nomen is Aemilius. The pleural form of Aemilius is Aemilii (uh-meal-ee-eye), used when referring to multiple members of the family or of the family as a collective rather than an individual unit. Occasionally, Quintus might refer to himself as an "Aemilius of the Aemilii", which is really just a pretentous way of saying his family is socially prestegious.
- Cognomen: Cognomens have multiple functions varying from a simple nickname to an extension to the family name to an indicator of personal status. Likewise this has many parallels in contemporary culture, from the addition of a married or maiden name to the appendage of initials designating an educational degree or British honour. Some Romans might have multiple cognomens, others none at all. Quintus bears the cognomen of Yee as an extension of his family name. Frequently he will identify himself by his cognomen alone, using it in the place of his surname for the sake of anonymity.
