- Source: Albinia gens
The gens Albinia was a plebeian family at Rome during the early centuries of the Republic. The first member of this gens to achieve prominence was Lucius Albinius Paterculus, one of the first men to hold the office of tribune of the plebs, after it was created in 494 BC.
Origin
The nomen Albinia is probably derived from the cognomen Albinus, a lengthened form of Albus, meaning "white" or "whitish".
Praenomina
The Albinii are known to have used the praenomina Lucius, Gaius, and Marcus.
Branches and cognomina
The only cognomen associated with the Albinii is Paterculus, a diminutive of pater, which may be translated as "little father", "uncle", or "daddy".
