Commentary
Patronym in -ii̯- from a name uipos or uipios.
The identification of the base is rendered difficult by the wealth of pertinent comparanda for the different possible readings of ⟨uip⟩. The arguably best candidate is the old Latin praenomen uibius, which is well attested in Roman inscriptions in the Piemonte area (see Untermann 1960: 286 and 1961: 12 f. with map 26); cf. the Latin praenomen lukios used as an individual name at the same find place as BI·6. From an inner-Celtic perspective, the most attractive choice is u̯imp- 'pretty' (see DLG: 320), which is attested in Gaulish lexically and in personal names (e.g. uimpus, etc., Delamarre 2007: X). A third, but less pertinent comparandum is the on-stem uipio in a Latin inscription at the same find place as BI·6 (no. 45 in Cresci Marrone & Solinas 2013) – while the spelling of the base is the same, uipio must have [p], which is not well attested in Gaulish (u̯ipp-, u̯īp- = variant of u̯ēp-?); it is the name of a freedman who died ca. 200 years after the son of uip(i)os, and is altogether not likely to have anything to do with the latter (pace Cresci Marrone & Solinas 2013: 44, 150.
