I had a guest speaker in one of my classes today and his name was Octavius. WDYT?

pretty sweet

I like Oct- names. I prefer Octavia to Octavius, but they are both neat. Very classy and starchy. It reminds me of a stiff white collar. I never know what I would use as a nickname though. For Octavia I might use Vivi, but for an Octavius? Tricky.

I'm thinking maybe Tay (as in Taylor) or even Otto. It is kind of tricky, though.

OP: I really like Octavius, though I prefer Octavian. I know a Hispanic Octavio. Very neat sighting.

Otto

I thought of that one too, but wasn't sure how much of a stretch it would be. If at least one other person thought of it though, I think it's a good sign!

Octavian is also great.

Tav, perhaps?

Although poor little Tav might get mistaken for an alcoholic.
