Commentary
Grammatically Latin patronymic genitive; the underlying personal name diukō is likely from Celtic diukū. Beside the most immediate comparandum diuco on a gravestone from Bee near Verbania (Lanza & Poletti Ecclesia 2021: 333–335), names of this form are attested in Transalpine Gaulish: CIL XII 1098 diuccius (St. Saturnin d'Apt), XIII 4244 diuciae (dat., Franzenheim), 4306 diuciana (Sablon), 11377 diuc (Metz); Tibiletti Bruno 1979: 262 (also 1981: 168) suggests a connection with names in dī-u̯ik- 'avenge' (AcS I: 1289 f. KGP: 194 f., GPN: 81–83, DLG: 145 f., Delamarre 2007: 87), which are attested in the vicinity of diuc-names (CIL XIII 11376 diuicius [Metz], 4371 diuiciae [dat., La-Horgne-au-Sablon]). Thus also Morandi 2004: 565, Stüber 2005: 69, 95, Wodtko 2013: 226; the syncopation of /i/ would be from longer formations like dīu̯ik(i)i̯os and transferred back to shorter ones. Alternatively, the names could be derived with a velar suffix from diu̯o- 'god (uel sim.)' with dropped thematic vowel diu̯-uk- (cf. maybe CIL V 5567 banuca, if banu̯(o)-uk-); the two forms may have influenced each other (cf. also CIL VII 160 deuccus [Wroxeter], AE 1939, 285 deuconis [Scarbantia]).
