Client #3 is currently using the name Haemon Metellus.  This is a
Greek given name (which I can document) with a Roman cognomen, as far
as I can tell. It looks like proper construction for a Greek with
Roman citizenship would have the Greek adopting a praenomen and nomen
and then appending their Greek given name as the cognomen, which would
put Haemon last in the name, not first. Unfortunately I haven't found
any evidence of Metellus as anythng other than a cognomen itself.

Am I overlooking something? Options for something close and allusive
to Metellus?
