    Ha! I couldn't get away with Quintillus. And if picking an emperor to name my only child after, it would never be after Quintillus. Yikes. Poor kid.

    His name is Quinlin, Quinn for short. Glad I could give all of you a chuckle.

    BTW - I did try to name him William Robert Brown. My wife thought it was great, until she realized I would then call him Billy Bob Brown. She was not happy after that. Quinlin didn't sound too bad, after that.

    You should name your one after the Emperor Quietus... it may be of use when he (or she), is growing up...
