You may be right; that's certainly one Roman Caesar that would make sense as a role model for a Luthor scion. Still, if the SV authors wanted to allude to Julius Caesar, they definitely should have stuck to the name "Julius". "Julian" is not a modern version of "Julius"; even though "Iulius" and "Iulianus" share the same root, they're still separate and distinct names.
I don't know who Julius Erving is, though, so I may be missing an important reason to stay clear of "Julius". :-)
