Scipio, Cicero, Cato, and the like; while both these ideas were, through the whole class. per., designated by cognomen, q.v.: “propriorum nominum quattuor sunt species: Praenomen, Nomen, Cognomen, Agnomen: praenomen est quod nominibus gentilitiis praeponitur, ut Marcus, Publius; nomen proprium est gentilitium, id est, quod originem gentis vel familiae declarat, ut Portius, Cornelius; cognomen est quod uniuscujusque proprium est et nominibus gentilitiis subjungitur, ut Cato, Scipio; agnomen vero est quod extrinsecus cognominibus adici solet, ex aliquā ratione vel virtute quaesitum, ut est Africanus, Numantinus, et similia,” Diom. p. 306 P.; so Prisc. 578 P. al.; Capit.
