Getting Ready for Kindergarten

We went to an open house for Julien's kindergarten at University Elementary School. He is very excited. Also a bit nervous. He said "I'm a litle bit scared about Kindergarten, but everyone is a bit scared when they move to a new school."

During the open house Richard over heard this conversation:
A little girl and a little boy introduced themselves to Julien.
He responded, "I'm Julien"
"Julien?" They look puzzled as if they have never heard the name.
He explains, "It's Roman like Julius as in Julius Caesar. You can tell because they have the same...ummm...they sound the same. Julien, Julius."

He was trying to explain that they have the same root!
