What are some Roman-Britain names?

Question

What are some male names from Britain from the period when the Roman Empire had conquered it

Answer 1

That is hard to answer because many names have been translated and retranslated and mutatated by well meaning sorts trying to sort out the writings of a time when writing was still being defined.
See the Welsh for a modern depiction of the problem. And Polish. Languages that don't require vowels. On Polish & Welsh Wheel of Fortune no one very buys a vowel thus you find names such as

CYMBR and AP'Rhys - - - which by the way, in Celtic, AP' is Son of ,, as is Mc and Mac /// ]]]]

Rhys was a comon first name which because of Ap' Rhys, son of Rhys is now a last name, Price ....

Fiona, Ely, Edgarth, all come easilly to mind.

Ennis is always a favorite beame of how it sounds. Suspect Dennis came about because someone said "Duh, Ennis." And Ap'Ennis is a guaranteed chortle.
Here is a cite site for Celtic Names // in most situations most of these will work but be aware of what was said earlier about spelling etc.....

Answer 2

The Romans didn't conquer the saxons, they invaded the native British who were 'celtic'. After initial revolts such as Queen Boudicca's, the natives gradually became Romanised--ie the wealthy lived in villas,wore Roman fashions etc.Possibly they had latinized names such as Septimus, Julia, Hadrianus.
Most people in villages probably had traditional celtic names,which would have been Latinised if they were mentioned in any records. For instance someone called Catalaunus in a Roman document would have been called something like Cadwalladwr by his family.
Incidentally although the Romans ruled Britannia, there was not a mass invasion/immigration or annilhilation of natives.Roman wanted all nations to increase the might of Rome; they wanted to reap the benefits,not to destroy what could be useful. When we speak of Romano British culture, the people we speak of are NOT Italians but primarily native British people who adopted Roman ways.

Romano British Names

Answer 4

If you're writing historical fiction from the Roman point of view, the bloody Romans would have renamed their servants, in fact all the Angles, Saxons, Picts, Jutes, and Scots they encountered, with Latin names. So find a Latin dictionary and find some condescending names (think about how American slave-owners named their slaves -- that would be the approximate attitude!).

For how the aboriginals would have addressed themselves and each other, find an Anglo-Saxon dictionary and look up the equivalent of "Farmer," "Tanner," "Woodman," and any other occupational-type surnames you think likely.

You can also steal names from Beowulf, although the Danes came a little later.

Here are some ANglo-Saxon names to get you started:
