no hammer, but 'militaris'
[edit]Marcellus significat militaris a fonte Vita Marcelli de Plutarcho. --141.58.173.24 (talk) 16:54, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
See la:Marcellus
Charles Martel
[edit]There is a hammer in a name: Charles Martel. But there is a 't', not a '-c-'.
The Latin can be: Marcellus is a soldier* from the source of Plutarch: (Life of Marcellus). or: *means 'military' --Ein-Rat-7000 (talk) 18:54, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
Malleus = Hammer
[edit]I'm no Latin scholar but this etymology seems very incorrect to me, or at least incomplete. Google Translate, for what it's worth, says 'hammer' in Latin is 'malleus' (as in the modern English 'mallet') or possibly 'marculus'. Can someone who actually studied Latin look over this?
