Thank you for the education. Is dropping the ius/us (I forget the term high school latin was a long time ago) a common way of translating roman names to german?

It seems to be common in English too. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_poetry

Ovid, Virgil, Horace...

To be perfectly honest I don't know.. I had latin as well, but I gleefully forgot most of it :)
