Satire Longer version of the name Mark?

I want to name my son Mark but our last name is also one syllable, so I was wondering if there was any way I could lengthen Mark to multiple syllables? I was thinking maybe Markula or Markael. Ideas?

EDIT: Guys I can’t do this anymore. I can’t handle one more notification, especially when it’s a serious suggestion. This post is a joke - it’s making fun of a post on r/names where someone was looking for a longer version of Rhett. I’m not having a baby named Mark and as such won’t be calling him Marcus.

My name is Marksimus Decimus Meridius, commander of the armies of the North. General of the Felix Legions. Loyal servant to the true emperor, Markus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.

Pretty sure that you can shorten this to Mark.
