Why did the Romans name their children after the sick?

I don't know - but i know my latin teacher was able to rattle down a list of around 20 very common names which all had something to do with ailments. Monty Python even used this fact (and the one that male names often had positive meaning) it in "Life of Brian" - the scene with "Biggus Dickus and Incontinentia" (in german he's "Schwanzus Longus") hits harder if you know these facts lol

Apparently, they wanted to ward off jealous folks with horrible names.
