Many names submitted to the censors are simply unacceptable and delay citizenship applications.

If you have questions about the process, or about any names that you are not sure about, please contact the censors before you apply. Here is a brief explanation of the basic structure of Roman names that may aid you in choosing a name. You will notice 3 lines on the application form, one for praenomen, one for nomen, the last for the cognomen. The most important name is your nomen, or gens name.
