Augustus was probably named "emperor" in some medieval history book. The Romans never used the term emperor, they called their leaders "Caesar". After the Julio/Claudian dynasty, the family name Caesar became the title for the head of state. Octavian/Augustus became the so-called
emperor after winning at Actium.
He referred to himself as a "princeps"
or "first citizen".
