Celtic on-stem personal name in the nominative with base indut, either a hypocorism of a compound (indutiomarus in literary sources, CIL XII 5884 indutiom[, RIIG BDR-12-08 (RIG G-70) ε̣ιν̣δ̣ο[υ]|τιορειξ, possibly also VAU-02-01 (G-111) [ιν]δου[τ]|[ι]οριγς) or an individualising derivation directly from the presumable noun, cf. RIIG BDR-12-02 ινδουτιλo[ς], VAU-16-01 ινδουτιλ|o (cf. Mullen 2013: 182–189), indutius, indutio, indutus, indutilli, indutissa (see AcS II: 41–45, KGP: 226, GPN: 96–98, Delamarre 2007: 223 et passim; probably also instances of indus, but cf. Falileyev 2014: 128 f.).
indut- itself, recently discussed by Falileyev 2014: 128 f. (see GPN for older literature), appears to be a compound of in- 'in' and dut- of unclear meaning and etymology, possibly the same as in names like dutia, duttius etc. Delamarre DLG: 190 f., assuming a meaning related to juridical matters based on the comparison with Lat. indūtiae 'armistice' (also of uncertain etymology), proposes an etymology *én(i)-dʰō-t-s from the PIE root *dʰeh₁- 'put, make' → 'who has the law within him' (cf. Lambert 2013: 152 with the same etymology for the second element of the theonym CIL XII 4223 menmandutis (dat. pl.) 'qui applique son esprit'). Another possibility is the root *deh₃- 'give', cf. Lat. sacerdōs (NIL: 63 f., n. 8 with literature). Cf. also Weiss (via Beekes 2010 s.v.), who suggests a deriviation of Lat. indūtiae from the root *deu̯h₂- 'to be able, arrange'.
