Commentary
The short sequence is most likely an on-stem personal name in the nominative or an abbreviation; the former may be indicated by lutou in the same object. A hypocoristic in(n)ū can be formed from any name with preverb in-. ⟨ou⟩ appears to denote long /ū/ or a local allophone with a more open pronunciation, or diphthongisation of -/ū/ to -/ou̯/; an orthographic compromise between the vernacular ending -ū and the Latinised ending -ō may also be possible. Cf., beside lutou, uerkou (uel sim.), anatikou and prikou.
