The Latin ending -ius often indicates a name that is derived from an adjective describing a particular individual (perhaps an ancestor of the person named).

In Latin the adjective caecus means blind, hidden, secret, confused, rash, uncertain or gloomy. Perhaps Caecilius had an ancestor who was one of those things, giving rise to the family name.
