Sextus Pompey? Sextus Pompey? Really?

How about Nautius Maximus? Or Biggus Dicus?

Ancient wokeness obviously lead to the disaster (or triumph, depending on which side you were on) of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest.

Sextus was Pompey’s sixth kid, ‘r somethin’. In the HBO series “Rome”, the Quintus character may have been loosely based on Sextus, but afaik, there never was a Quintus Pompey.

Name traditionally given to the sixth born child. Given the rates of infant mortality, some of his older siblings probably died early and that’s why they wouldn’t be known to history.
