Help picking a name

[noxia]

just another note:
according to Junkelmann the schools were known as familia gladiatoria (sing) or familiae gladiatoriae (plur) and these familiae were named after their owner.
Whereas the games, which were organised by the caesars were the ludi (seems always to occur in plural) or the munera (plur. - munus sing.) if privatly organised

derived from the ludi also the term ludus gladiatorius for the school (edit)
Interesting is, that criminels were condemned ad ludos

have a look at: Köhne/Ewigleben (Hrsg.) Caesaren und Gladiatoren
and Thomas Wiedemann, Kaiser und Gladiatoren
