= = = = = = =Nero was born at Antium (Anzio) on December 15 A.D 37. Nero was first named Lucius, Domitius, Ahenobarbus. He was the son of Chaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus who was descended from distinguished noble family of Roman republic. When Nero was two his mother was taken away by Caligula to the pertain Islands. In A.D 50 Agrippina persuaded Claudius to adopt Nero as his own son. At his adoption he assumed that they would change his name to Nero Claudius Drusus Germanicus. The names were largely in honor of the maternal grandfather. His grandfather Germanicus was a extremely popular commander with the army. Nero took precedence over Claudius own younger child Britannicus. Nero had then come to find out that his mother was trying to arrange for him to be killed so he reported it to the senate.=
