The letters with which a Latin name ends vary depending on the gender of the word, and, in the case of actual use in the Latin language to make sentences, on how the name is used in the sentence. The same name will have a different ending if it is the subject of a sentence than if it is the object, and yet a further different ending if it is being used as a possessive. There are a total of three genders and five cases (or usage forms) each of which has a singular and a plural. So any given name can have a total of up to 10 endings, and adjectives, which must agree with the words they modify in case, gender and number, have a total of 30 possible word endings. For some words, the same ending is used for different cases, etc, so the total for a given word may be fewer.
In general, when a name is the subject of a sentence and is singular, not plural, it will end in the letter "A" if it follows the rules for feminine gender, in the letters "US" if it follows the rules for the masculine gender, and the letters "UM" if it follows the rules for the neuter gender.
