“That bastard—”

“Chaldion?”

“—that’s what I said.”

~ Pelt and Emessa, 8.50

Why didn't ancient Romans give foreign names to their children?

The Romans began giving Greek names to their children during the pagan era. There was even an Arab dynasty of Roman emperors from Emessa in what is now Syria. So you have names like the emperors Philip the Arab, Elagabalus and Diocletian. Then did when Christianity was legalized by Constantine in 311 AD. Many Hebrew, and Aramaic names from the New Testament were given to children. Yaakov became Iacobus. Centuries later Iacobus became James. Shimon became Simon. Yohanan became Iohannes, ie John. Bar Tolmay became Bartholomaeus, Bart. Bar Nabi “son of the prophet" became Barnabas or Barney.

[twi-quotes]

Something had happened with Pelt, long ago. He was paranoid of flaws in his steel. Something had broken her ill-tempered master. And Emessa, like a [Smith], wondered if the flaw had gone to the very core of Pelt’s being. If you could even fix what was wrong with him or if he was damaged beyond repair.
