OriginMiddle English: from Latin Caesar, family name of the Roman statesman Julius Caesar, Gaius. Roman emperors from Augustus (63 bc– ad 14), the first emperor, to Hadrian (ad 76–138) were known by the title Caesar. The word came simply from the name of Julius Caesar (100–44 bc), who was Augustus's predecessor as ruler of Rome. It is the root of both the German Kaiser and the Russian Tsar, used in the USA for a boss since the mid 19th century, and an officially appointed person in charge of something since the mid 20th. A person who should be above suspicion can be referred to as Caesar's wife. According to the Greek biographer Plutarch (c. ad 46–120), Julius Caesar's wife Pompeia was accused of adultery. Although he did not believe his wife was guilty, Caesar divorced Pompeia anyway. His justification for this was, ‘I thought my wife ought not even to be under suspicion’. A Caesarian section is so called because Julius Caesar is supposed to have been delivered by this birth method.
