A Welsh couple
Elaine Romaeo, 35, and her husband
Tony, 51, named their five children after Greek,
Roman and Egyptian mythology.
The eldest is
Romeo Casanova
Valentino, 12, next is
Venus Valentine, 11, then
Angel Aphrodite, 10,
Isis Ise, 3, and
Achilles Spartacus Mars, 2.
The couple are calling their next boy (due in 4 weeks)
Caesar Augustus Constantine.
Elaine Romaeo said:
"Instead of getting an A-Z of baby names I bought some history books and found some of the most famous names ever.
"At first we chose a love theme with
Romeo and
Venus Valentine but now we have widened it a bit.
"And when the new arrival comes in four week's time he will be named after three
Roman emperors.
"That's got to be better than names like
Jack,
Oliver and
Daniel which are okay, but a bit too popular for us."

While most of these names are a bit too much for me, I like
Valentine,
Angel,
Mars and
Augustus on their own. But their oldest is
Romeo Romaeo?
