Commentary
o-stem personal name in the nominative, formed with an l-suffix. Multiple reading (uī̆t(t)-, uī̆d-, uint-) and thus analysis options for the base:
1. u̯ītu- 'willow' – the vowel in the suffix would be expected to be u rather than i (cf. AE 1901, no. 56c uitula (Belgica), but this is not always regular (see the morpheme page); cf. Rhŷs 1913: 40, Lejeune 1971: 65 f., n. 232, Tibiletti Bruno 1978: 150 f., Morandi 2004: 653, who compare names in uit(t)- listed by Holder AcS III: 410–414, e.g. CIL XIII 6484 uittio (Wimpfen am Neckar), 2506 uittullo, uittullinus (Belley).
2. u̯int- '?' with unclear etymology, but better comparanda: CIL XIII 5870 uintili (cogn., Langres), AE 1900, no. 105 uintelius (St. Maurice), cf. Rhŷs 1913: 40 f. and snaśiouitos.
3. (unlikely) u̯id- 'knowing' uel sim.
As noted by cf. Lejeune 1971: 65 f., n. 232, a connection with well-attested u̯indill(i)os (see Delamarre 2007: 200) is not possible, as */nd/ = ⟨n⟩ in the Lepontic alphabet, pace Delamarre 2007: 203. The same name may be attested in the genitive uitili.
