We did a class on names in my Rome class today (my Roman name is Dorothea Piscatoria Calida, even though Dorothea is really Greek...) and we got a long sheet of various cognomen and their meanings. I came across Imperiosa and I'm really stuck on it now. Is it too weird? I'm worried it's a little too bizarre even for me. I really like it though.

Lydia Imperiosa? Amy Imperiosa? Viola Imperiosa? Silva Imperiosa? Oliva Imperiosa? Vivian Imperiosa? Livia Imperiosa? Linnet Imperiosa? Katharina Imperiosa?

Hmm. Heh, Katharina Imperiosa. That's a pretty perfect description of the title character from Taming of the Shrew...

So what do you think? Imperiosa? Is it cool as a middle name, or just too weird? Other combo suggestions?
