Livia Ocellina

Livia Ocellina was the second wife of Gaius Sulpicius Galba and the stepmother of the Roman Emperor Galba.

Her father was a Lucius Livius Ocella.

According to Suetonius she was:

Galba was raised by her and took on the name Lucius Livius Ocella (rather than his birth name of Servius Sulpicius Galba) during the period prior to his assumption of the purple.

There has been speculation that she was related to Roman empress Livia Drusilla. Ronald Syme has expressed that he does not believe that to be true.
