Archived 29 March 2020 at the Wayback Machine "Marcus Annius Verus [...] This Marcus Annius, earlier named Catilius, was a grandson of Annius Verus [...] He preferred Verus on account of his kinship and his age and because he was already giving indication of exceptional strength of character. This led Hadrian to apply to the young man the name Verissimus, thus playing upon the meaning of the Latin word."
