   (historical) notably borne by Κωνσταντῖνος ὁ Μονομάχος (Kōnstantînos ho Monomákhos), Constantine IX Monomachos (c. 1000–1055 C.E.), Byzantine Roman Emperor who ruled the Byzantine Empire from 1042 to 1055

   • circa 1080 C.E., Michael Attaleiates, History :

     Καὶ χρόνον τινὰ δι' ἑαυτῶν ἰθύνασαι τὴν ἀρχὴν, τῆς ὑπερορίας ἀνακαλοῦνται Κωνσταντῖνον τὸν Μονομάχον, ἀριστοκρατικὸν ἄνδρα καὶ θρέμμα τῆς Πόλεως, ὕποπτον δὲ ὄντα διὰ τὴν ἀρχήν, καὶ διὰ τοῦτο παρὰ τῶν πρώην κρατούντων φυγαδευόμενον Εὐεργετικώτερος δὲ τοῦ προβεβασιλευκότος ὁ Μονομάχος ἀποδειχθείς, καὶ πάντας σχεδὸν βασιλικοῖς ἀξιώμασι καὶ δωρήμασι φιλοτίμοις ἀποσεμνύνας, ἠγάθυνε τὸ ὑπήκοον

     Kaì khrónon tinà di' heautôn ithúnasai tḕn arkhḕn, tês huperorías anakaloûntai Kōnstantînon tòn Monomákhon, aristokratikòn ándra kaì thrémma tês Póleōs, húpopton dè ónta dià tḕn arkhḗn, kaì dià toûto parà tôn prṓēn kratoúntōn phugadeuómenon […] Euergetikṓteros dè toû probebasileukótos ho Monomákhos apodeikhtheís, kaì pántas skhedòn basilikoîs axiṓmasi kaì dōrḗmasi philotímois aposemnúnas, ēgáthune tò hupḗkoon

     And after some time ruling themselves, they recall from exile Constantine Monomachos, a man of the aristocracy and native of the City, but being suspect for the sake of power, and for this exiled by those ruling previously Monomachos proved more beneficent than any who reigned before, and glorified almost all with imperial ranks and lavish gifts, benefiting his subjects
