I initially named this page Cicero, not considering that he mentions his brother (also named Cicero, but full name not used) in Tartarus, because he's best known mononymously. His full name of Marcus Tullius Cicero is used in the story, so I'd like to request a move to Marcus Tullius Cicero and a move of Cicero (brother) to either just Cicero or maybe Cicero (Tartarus)... a little confusing but the current title doesn't really fit the preferred convention of disambiguating by story Toqgers 02:10, February 4, 2020 (UTC)

Using Cicero for Cicero's brother would be pretty misleading, though. Our Cicero here is often referred to as just that, making him far more of a primary topic. If anything, his brother maybe ought to be Cicero's brother, with the lead saying that he was also called Cicero. I don't object to renaming this page, necessarily, but the Cicero redirect should continue to stand if we do.
