Batavian
The veldpaap has named you Batavier (Batavian).
You must accept the name.
Why this name
You answered as a northerner in Rome — town name, Batavian badge, or both. Batavier (Batavian) is the Bent’s nationality joke worn as identity. Your outsider put outsider first.
The historical echo
Samuel van Hoogstraten (1627–1678), Rembrandt pupil, painter-theorist, and Bent member, bore Batavier. His Inleyding (1678) includes a personal initiation account — a key primary touchstone for how a bentnaam was conferred.
