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.
