The gladiators were named by their parents when they were babies. When they grew up and became gladiators they either used their own names or they assumed a "stage name" such as Felix, meaning lucky. Other names used by gladiators seemed to connote strength, greatness, courage, etc. all the qualities that were admired. Names derived from Hercules, and the name Alexander were popular. A possible example of this is the gladiator Spartacus. That name is very closely allied to Sparta and the Spartans were the renowned fighters of their time. It makes some researchers wonder if, because he was a gladiator, Spartacus was a stage name and not the legal name of the man himself.
