Romani cognomen passover?

Its definatley not a bug, quite a nice feature really as I like having a whole dynasty of africanus, gallicus etc.

It's quite cool, I think, and adds a new level of uniqueness to the family tree.

I had a Macedonicus in a Romani campaign, whose son was Macedonicus too.

I don't think its too unhistorical. Scipio Africanus' son was named Africanus (his grandson took the name also, but after conquering Carthage was entitled to the name in his own right). The other example I could find was P. Servilius Vatia Isauricus whose son took the same name.

However there are plenty more historical examples of sons not taking 'victory' agnomina from their fathers, eg. Q. Caecilius Metellus Numidicus, Q. Caecilius Metellus Macedonicus, Q. Caecilius Metellus Balearicus, M. Antonius Creticus.
