      WHẽ it was cõcluded that we ſhulde ſayle into italy / they delivered Paul / and certayne other pꝛeſoners vnto won named Iulius / ã vnder captayne of Ceſars ſoudiars.
    • 1980, Anthony Birley, “Legionary centurions”, in The People of Roman Britain, Berkeley, Calif.: University of California Press, →ISBN, page 73:
      The seven [centurions] from II Adiutrix, whose stay in the province can be closely dated to the years 71–85/6, have an instructive set of names – two Julii, appropriately enough in a period when two of the governors also bore this name; []
    • 2001, Rose Williams, Duces Romanorum: Profiles in Roman Courage, teacher’s edition, London: WPC Classics, →ISBN, page 94:
      Vespasian, a simple man, always laughed because so many Julii and Claudii were made divine after their deaths. On his deathbed he said, “Alas! I think I’m becoming a god.”
    • 2007, Mark Walker, “Roman Names, Numerals, Dates & Days”, in Annus Horribilis: Latin for Everyday Life, Stroud, Gloucestershire: The History Press, published 2010:
      So the man whom we know as Julius Caesar was a member of the Julii clan belonging to a particular branch whose paternal designation was Caesar. Only intimate family members would have called him Gaius. Caesar was known by his cognomen, presumably because there were many Julii and it would have caused confusion to use that nomen.
    • 2012, Lynsay Sands, The Lady Is a Vamp (An Argeneau Novel), New York, N.Y.: Avon, →ISBN, page 292:
      Julius is Marguerite’s dog,” Jeanne Louise explained to Paul as she smiled at her Italian cousin. / “I thought Julius was Marguerite’s life mate?” Paul said with confusion. / “He is. There are two Juliuses,” Christian said with amusement. “One is a dog, and one is my father.”
