Roman Womens Names and NickName

Girls were simply given their father’s Nomen, feminized, and sometimes a cognomen or a nickname such as a diminutive of her father’s Nomen or cognomen. Therefore, all of Julius Caesar’s daughters and sisters were named Julia, though may have been called Julilla, etc. Apparently, some girls were simply numbered: Prima, Secunda, Tertia, etc. Women did not change their names (Roman Womens Names) when they married.
