Horatio

Horatio is a male given name, derived from the Latin name ( nomen) Horatius, from the Roman gens (clan) Horatia.

Horatio may refer to:

Horatio (Hamlet)

Horatio is a character in William Shakespeare's tragedy Hamlet. Horatio's origins are unknown, although he was present on the battlefield when Hamlet's father defeated 'the ambitious Norway', Fortinbras (the king), and attended Wittenberg university with prince Hamlet. Horatio is evidently not directly involved in the intrigue at the Danish court; thus, he makes a good foil or sounding board for Prince Hamlet. He is often not identified as any specific court position, but simply as "friend to Hamlet."

Horatio (crater)

Horatio is a feature on Earth's Moon, a crater in Taurus-Littrow valley. Astronauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt drove along its south rim in 1972, on the Apollo 17 mission, but did not stop.

The larger Camelot crater is to the northeast. Geology Station 5 is along the south rim of Camelot. Victory is to the northwest, and Brontë is to the southwest.

The crater was named by the astronauts after the fictional Horatio Hornblower from the works of C. S. Forester.
