brown eyes and black/dark brown hair are almost never mentioned in descriptions of an individual's appearance, as the vast majority of romans had them. Rare exceptions are description of Julius Caesar's brown eyes (possibly because his cognomen is similar to latin word for blue and Suetonius wanted to show that it did not match Caesar's eyes) and rare descriptions that highlight some contrast (Messalina in Juvenal's satire "wearing a blond wig over her black hair"). If a person was described by a historian and his eye and hair color is not mentioned, then he most likely had brown eyes and black/dark brown hair. This is usually confirmed by various colored depictions like mosaics (Alexander's eye color wasn't described by historians and he is always depicted with brown eyes) or busts with traces of paint (Caligula's pigmentation wasn't describes and he has brown eyes and dark hair in scientific reconstruction).
Name (not nomen or cognomen) means nothing. Flavius became popular only in the late empire, partly due to influx of north european migrants and partly because people liked it. Name Gwen means white/fair, but not all Gwens today are blond or white
