Page "Caligula" Paragraph 10
from
Wikipedia
As a boy of just two or three, Gaius accompanied his father, Germanicus, on campaigns in the north of Germania.
The soldiers were amused that Gaius was dressed in a miniature soldier's uniform, including boots and armor.
He was soon given his nickname Caligula, meaning " little ( soldier's ) boot " in Latin, after the small boots he wore as part of his uniform.
