Commentary

Personal name in the dative. Possibly formed with the same obscure (local?) suffix -om- which appears to be attested in teromui, in which the base, if etymologically Celtic, could be any in °rk-/°rg. Motta 2000: 200 suggests terkomui, cf. names in derc- listed in Delamarre 2007: 84, AcS I: 1266 f., KGP: 192, GPN: 344. Another popular emendation is uerkomui, whose putative base (u̯erk-om-os*) can be compared with that of the personal name underlying the patronym uerkalai – see there for analysis options for that base. Alternatively, u̯erkomos could be analysed as a hypocoristic of a compound in u̯er-kom- (uercombogios, uerkondaridubnos, s. option 3 on uerkalai), thus Rhŷs 1913: 15 f., PID: 552, Tibiletti Bruno 1978: 138 and Morandi 2004: 538 (also perkomui). See also Salomon 2024: 152.
