Latin Baby Names
By Andrew Zhang, OJCL Central Gubernator, Columbus Academy
I’m sure that some day, all of us JCLers are going to grow
up and give our children Latin names. So in preparation for
that day years from now, I have come up with a list of the
best possible Roman names. That way perhaps a decade or
more from now when you’re choosing a name for your
child, you can be like BUT WAIT. CENTRAL GUBER ANDREW
ZHANG CAME UP WITH THIS NIFTY LIST. You’re welcome in
advance. You’ll thank me some day.
1)
Zhangius (no relationship to my name, I promise)
2)
Sextus (it just has a nice ring to it when you say it!)
3)
Sextius (see previous explanation)
4)
Fufius (F-F-F-F-F-F-F-F-F-F-F-F-Fufius)
5)
Icilius (It looks funny and sounds intense)
6)
Pupius (Your kid’s gonna have a rough childhood,
but it’ll be worth it in the long term)
7)
Uulius (Apparently this is a thing???)
