See the inscription page on the reading.

''ā''-stem personal name formed from the present participle ''biu̯ont''- 'living' → 'the living one' (cf. {{bib|Stüber 2005}}: 101 on the semantic motivation), also attested in the Latin inscription {{bib|CIL}} V 5176 ''bionta'' (F·BIONTAE) at Curno (ca. 35 km from [[Coccaglio]]) (cf. {{bib|Molinari 1974}}: 76). Cf. {{w||piuot}}, {{w||piuotialui}}.
