Choosing a nomen
The second name or nomen (pl. nomina) is the name of the gens (clan). In Nova Roman society, each gens bears a unique name.
- Nomina marked with an asterisk (*) are NOT currently in use in Nova Roma. Please note that we are not currently accepting new gentes in Nova Roma until further notice. You may however petition the censores and present a case should you wish to overcome this restriction.
- Nomina in brackets ([…]) are only recorded during the imperial period but may also belong to the Republican nomenclature.
- Nomina marked with a square (#) do not have an Italian/Roman origin.
- Nota Bene: Female nomina take -ia instead of -ius on the root of the nomen. e.g : Octavius -> Octavia.
We encourage our applicants to enter one of the already existing Gentes of Nova Roma and to adopt the respective nomen. If an applicant wants to create a new gens, the censores must be contacted for approval and it should be one of the gentes proven to actually have existed during the Republic.
