If you think the Vikings had weird names, the Byzantines had an emperor called Constantine V Copronymus (or 'the shit-named') and the father of another was called Theophylact Abastactus (or 'the unbearable').

My #Greek is pretty bad, and it doesn't help if it's 1300 years old Greek. Unfortunately, most scholars of #ByzantineHistory assume you know Greek, which is fair.

Anyway, can anyone translate the orders here into non-Greek letters?
