Commentary
Patronym in -iknos derived from a personal name kalatos or kalat(i)i̯os. The base could in principle be kalat- or galat-. Gambari 2007: 257 suggests kal-et- 'hard, stern' as attested in Gaulish ethnonmys (caletes etc.) and personal names (caletius etc.) – see kal- – which he derives from a base kala- 'stone', but see Joseph 1982: 40, who proposes an etymology PIE *kl̥H-et-o- 'cold' (cf. Irslinger 2002: 46 f., Matasović 2009: 185, DLG: 98).
The base is better read galat- and identified directly with the ethnonym Gr. γαλάτης, pl. γαλάται ← Celtic *galatis 'endowed with power' (see galat-). galatiknos could be derived from the ethnonym itself ('son of the Galatian') or a derived personal name galat(ii̯)os (thus also Gambari 2011: 27), as attested as the name of a Boian king galatos in Polyb. II 21, 1–5 (died 225 BC). Cf. Meid 2005: 195 f., who suggests that personal names like gallus, gallius etc. are derived from the ethnonym gallus, pl. galli, but still carry the semantics of the appellative base; this may also be true of galat(ii̯)os. For individual names which may be derived from ethnonyms cf. eluveitie, pelkui and onesi.
