The name probably has a Celtic etymology and contains the base {{m|leu̯k-}} 'bright'. It finds a comparandum in the first element of the Celtic compound {{w||leukururitu|leukur-u̯ritu}} ([[NO·28]]). The two elements are clearly related, but morphologically opaque – both have ''u'' instead of regular ''o'' (''leu̯ko''-) as stem vowel (see the morpheme page) and feature an ''r''-suffix. The latter might be adjectival -''ro'', but {{w||leukururitu}} lacks the suffix' stem vowel, and ''u'' remains unexplained.
Morphologically Latin ''on''-stem personal name in the nominative. The name is most probably etymologically Celtic, containing the base {{m||leu̯k-|leu̯ko-}} 'bright'. It finds a comparandum in the first element of the compound {{w||leukururitu}} ([[NO·28]]).

Commentary

Morphologically Latin on-stem personal name in the nominative. The name is most probably etymologically Celtic, containing the base leu̯ko- 'bright'. It finds a comparandum in the first element of the compound leukururitu (NO·28). The two elements share an apparent r-suffix (adjectival -ro-?), whose function is unclear, as is the motivation of /u/ rather than /o/ between base and putative suffix.
