Why was he given the name Alexander the great?
The earliest surviving reference we have of Alexander being called, 'Alexander the Great', is found in a Roman play titled, "Mostellaria (The Haunted House), a play written by Titus Maccius Plautus c. 254-184 BCE testifying to the admiration that the Romans had for his military achievements.The line from the play, "Alexandrum magnum atque Agathoclem aiunt maximas" in English reads, "Alexander the great and most importantly, they say, Agathocles". The character, Tranio, a slave in Rome owned by Theopropides is comparing himself admiringly to Alexander and Agathocles.We don't know if the playwright Titus Maccius Plautus coined the title but we can safely assume that his audience would recognize who 'Alexandrum magnum' was, an indication that the epithet predated Plautus' play and suggesting that the Romans began styling Alexander as 'the great' fairly soon after his death.Quintus Curtius Rufus also mentions 'Alexander the Great', by the epithet 'Great' in his "Historie Alexandri Magni Macedonis" in the 1st century CE. The 'Magni' has been translated into English as, "Great" and is a clear reference to his talent as a military leader which allowed him to build such a huge empire.
