Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus has the proper pronunciation. However given his screen name, I thought he would not the obvious; you are using his cognomen (family name within clan) and agnomen (nickname, or in this case laudatory title_. His name was Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus. There is a second Scipio Africanus, Publius Cornelius Scipio Aemilianus Africanus Numantinus , the adoptive grandson of the first Scipio Africanus. The first was given the lauditory agnomen at the defeat of Carthage in the Second Punic War. The younger recieved it for defeating and then destroying Carthage in the Third Punic war.

LOL!

One more thing to warn M.K. about. If you ever play that Rome:Total War game, don't go by what the game says about the names of the principals involved. There was no gens Scipii (which, if you pluralise Scipio, would actually be Scipiones anywise). As rmlew observed, the Scipiones were of the gens Cornelii. And also, there was no gens Brutii, either. Brutus was the cognomen of Marcus Junius Brutus (aka for a period of time as Quintus Servilius Caepio Brutus), so his and the family's nomen would be Junii.
