The most famous one who comes to mind is Cicero, but in his own time he had big competition from Hortensius. Cato the Elder, Julius Caesar and Marc Antony could also be rated as great.

Yes, Cicero had a son whose name was Marcus Tullius Cicero Minor, or "Cicero the Younger." Cicero wrote "Partitiones Oratoriae" for his son with the hopes that Cicero the Younger would go into oratory.
Cicero wanted to defend and preserve the constitution of the Roman Republic, its traditions and the freedoms he felt it guaranteed.

Cicero was also a staunch upholder of morality. His writings on ethics were influential for centuries after the fall of the Roman Empire.
