Latinized Latinized names are not a single thing; they must follow the rules of the naming pool from which they are taken.
Bynames based on relationships can be marked with Latinized particles such as filius// 'son', //filia// 'daughter', //uxor// 'wife', and //relicta 'widow'. These are usually followed by the Latinized form of the person in the genitive case, though sometimes the name is not declined.
Locatives can use the preposition de 'of/from,' despite the fact that such usage was not proper in classical Latin. In this case, the locative may be Latinized, but is often left in its vernacular form.
In the early Middle Ages, a second given name is often used as a byname; it is preceded by a term like alias//, //dictus//, or //cognomento. In later usage, two bynames will often be connected by these same terms.

From the July 2014 LoAR: Wulf Werner. Name.We note that the originally submitted name, Wulf filius Werner//, would also be registerable. Ælfwynn Leoflæde dohtor documented patronymic bynames that combine the Latin //filius// with the unmodified form of the father's name to 13th century Germany. An example is //Wernlinus filius Ermenrich, dated 1267 (Socin, p. 579). http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2014/07/14-07lar.html#84
