Etymology of Publicola
Perhaps someone could edit the parentheses that explains the etymology of Publicola. According to R.M. Ogilvy in A Commentary on Livy (p. 253), "populi colendi -- The popular etymology can hardly be correct, since the cognomen would be unique. Various modern etymologies have been proposed ... but none carries immediate conviction." I'd do it, but I've never edited a Wikipedia article and I'm not sure of the conventions.
