Axsios - Emperor Nero knew he had a coup being plotted against him, his most trusted general was his prime suspect. He sent for the General Domitius Corbulo and when he arrived, ordered him to take his own life in the name of the empire. General Domitus Corbulo didn't even hesitate shouting "Axios!!" As he fell upon his own sword. Axsios translates to "I Am Worthy"
I added an extra s.

Nice. I don't think it's "coo" though. I believe it's "coup".

Axios means worthy in GREEK. Not latin. So that story isn't 100% true. But that happens along the centuries,stories get meddled together. :-)
