Tullia Minor, the younger daughter (her sister was also named Tullia) of Servius Tullius, the 6th king of Rome. She married Tarquinius Superbus and together they murdered her father in order to put Tarquinius on the throne as the 7th (and final) king of Rome. Tullia ordered her chariot driver to continue driving over her father's mutilated dead body, thereby covering her in his blood. So, not a nice person :)

A friend of mine chose this as her name for her Latin class, and I instantly loved it. I assumed it was spelt Tulia, so I still prefer that spelling over the technically correct Tullia. I think it's a really neat name.
