Commentary
Probably the fragment of a personal name, either a compound beginning with tut(i)i̯o- or a simplex name tut(i)i̯os. The underlying morpheme may be tou̯t-, in which case the name may be a compound with tou̯t(i)i̯os 'citizen' or with (possible) tou̯t(i)i̯o- 'left, bad, magic' (cf. toutiopouos), or hypocoristic tou̯t(i)i̯os (attested in Gaulish toutios, Delamarre 2007: X) from either of these semantic options. This analysis presupposes monophthongisation and raising of the stem vowel (cf. DLG: 295) at a rather early date (in contrast to e.g. toutoris, toutas). Since no good examples for raising of /ō/ to /ū/ are otherwise known from Cisalpine Celtic, an analysis of the base as dut- (dut(t)(i)i̯o-) may be preferable.
