description Q. Caecilius Metellus Pius Scipio, who has changed his name because of a “testamentary adoption”, bears a denomination, which presents twelve different onomastic formulae in the literary, epigraphic and numismatic evidence. This diversity is baffling and seems no worth analyzing, as denomination seems to be a matter of arbitrariness. This study, through the anlysis of the distinction between denomination and onomastic formula, which was phrased by Nicolet, is based on the hypothesis that these departures from the rule were meaningful et are open to interpretation. We will examine successively the official nomenclature, the onomastic formulae used by Scipio, as well as his allies and opponents. We will conclude by studying the way he is named by later authors.
