What does the name Julius Caesar mean?
Roman naming conventions were somewhat different than we are used to today. Males in ancient Roman society had three or even four "names" each with a separate purpose. In this case the full name was "Gaius Julius Caesar". The first name, "Gaius" was his given name and chosen by the most senior patriarch of the family. There were only ever about a dozen or so choices however, and often men from the same family would have the same "name" for many generations. Generally speaking however, this name was only used in private discussion between very close friends or family.
The second name "Julius" is simply the masculine form of the clan he derives from, the Julii (pronounced Ju-Le-I).
The third name "Caesar" was actually little more than what we today might consider a legally accepted nickname. After some point in Roman society, this changed and this third name (called a Cognomen) became hereditary within families and a fourth name (Agnomen) was added to continue the tradition of giving people nickames.
