Talk:Otho

message: The coin depicted in the article was minted under Nero and shows Nero's portrait. It would be much better to use issues from the mint of Rome rather than Greek drachms to depict the Roman emperors. Because of Otho's short reign there are no Drachms in his name.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.5.187.42 (talk) 11:10, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Wrong coin 

message: Certain that the population Rome despised Nero.. This article contradicts what I had believed when it says "The population of the city was also unhappy with Galba and cherished the memory of Nero." --- Is this true? Did the Romans like Nero? Why on earth would they miss such a tyrant?
"According to Suetonius and Cassius Dio , the people of Rome celebrated the death of Nero. [137][138] Tacitus, though, describes a more complicated political environment. Tacitus mentions that Nero's death was welcomed by Senators, nobility and the upper-class.[139] The lower-class, slaves, frequenters of the arena and the theater, and "those who were supported by the famous excesses of Nero", on the other hand, were upset with the news.[139] Members of the military were said to have mixed feelings, as they had allegiance to Nero, but were bribed to overthrow him.[104" 
Wikipedia page on Nero.
*Also, the Flavian emperors deliberately invoked the memory of Nero to court favor with the Roman crowds, which is further proof that he was popular with the masses, if not the aristocracy.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.146.101.146 (talk) 16:17, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  I was... 

message: I seem to think that the name Otto and all its variants (Ottone, Odo, Odone, Oddo etc) are derived from "Otho". Can anyone confirm this? If so perhaps a merge of all these pages would be appropriate. Zargulon 13:42, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  The name Otho 

message: In the article, he's listed as belonging to the Claudian dynasty. How's this even possible? The Claudian dynasty ended with Nero. Otho was not related by blood or any relation to anybody in the Claudian dynasty. He belonged to the chaotic Year of Four Emperors period, not particularly associated with any dynasty, especially none of them to Claudian. (The last of the "four emperors" founded Flavian dynasty.)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.185.227.61 (talk) 10:33, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

message: Are we sure that the bust of Otho in the article is ancient? It looks modern to me. Where is it displayed?
