His name and his connection with this community suggest that he was a native of Rome, or at least of Latin origin. Ordinal adjectives were often used by the Romans as personal names; hence it is not entirely unfounded that Q. was the brother of Tertius, named in Rom. 16:22 as Paul's amanuensis. He is commemorated by the Roman Martyrology on November 3.
