If someone did say "This is my son Octavius," I'd think them very pompous and superior.

I think that's a very reasonable and honest response. A lot of the Roman names we're familiar with today is because they had such famous bearers. I'd probably think someone was pompous if they named their son Napoleon (unless they were really odd, than I would just think they liked Napoleon Dynamite way too much). Quite a few of the names are a bit weight-y imo.
