Born Varius Avitus, he took the name Marcus Aurelius Antoninus upon his accession. He was called Elagabalus after the Sun-God he worshiped. 

His excesses were a major embarrassment for all. His Grand-mother Julia Maesa had him assassinated with his Mother Julia Soaemias 

and replaced by Severus Alexander.
