Name Root:
Tĕrentĭus
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Latin “Tĕrentĭus” (Guardian) linked to the Gens “Terentia,” an ancient Roman family. Terentius Maximus was a Roman, also known as the Pseudo-Nero, who rebelled during Titus’s reign, but was suppressed. He resembled Nero in appearance and action, as he was known to sing with the lyre’s accompaniment. Publius Terentius Afer, better known in English as Terence, was a playwright of the Roman Republic, of North African descent. His comedies were first performed around 170–160 BC. Terence Lucan, a Roman senator, brought Terence to Rome as a slave, instructed him, and later, impressed by his abilities, freed him.
