ArchivesRe: Is this the correct latinized form of Maximilien Robespierre?
in reply to a message by sogfrk
"Maximilianus" seems valid.
Some things jump out at me regarding "Robespierre," however. It appears (to me) to derive from a hyphenated surname, Robes-Pierre.
Likely etymology:
(I am only a talented amateur when it comes to Latinization, though.)
"Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth." Ps. 127:4

Likely etymology:
- Robe's < Robert's [son] (which would probably Latinize to Robi)
- Pierre < Peter (which should Latinize to Petrus)
