As my birthday pressie to you, I have blanagrammed a choice of two new Roman aliases for you!

 

Agrip. Critonius Sanctus

=

atincishrositnargchsp -hh +uu

 

Agrip.: abbreviation of the rare praenomen "Agrippa."

 

Critonius: making you related to L. Critonius, an aedilis cerealis in 44 BCE, and a staunch republican. "When the Cerealia were celebrated, shortly after the murder of Caesar, and Octavianus erected the golden sella with a crown in honour of Caesar...Critonius declared that he would not suffer Caesar to be thus honoured in the games for which he (Critonius) himself had to pay the expenses."

 

Sanctus: meaning "consecrated, holy, inviolable."

 

Agrip. Ancharius Tigrinus

=

Ancharius: making you related to Q. Ancharius, a tribune of the plebs in the consulship of Caesar and Bibulus (59 BCE), who "took an active part in opposing the agrarian law of Caesar, and in consequence of his services to the aristocratical party obtained the praetorship." (from Smith's Dictionary)

 

Tigrinus: meaning "like a tiger."

 

Grrrr, you go, Tiger!
