Most, if not all Brutes, have Latin-sounding names, some examples of which are [[Tartarus]] and [[Bracktanus]]. In ''[[Contact Harvest]]'', it is revealed that the "us" at the end of their name is an honor denoting maturity or experience in battle. Oddly, in ''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]'', there was a Brute [[Shipmaster]], by the name of [[Gargantum]], which seems to contradict this rule, although this is never explained why. It is also possible that the ending "-us" could come from the name Brutus, who killed Julius Caesar. This can explain both the nickname of the Brutes, and their personal names. | |||
