Commentary
Compound personal name in the nominative. The second element is well-attested -bog(i)i̯os 'breaker'; the first element is most likely to be matu- 'bear' with the stem vowel replaced by -o- as per Gambari 1991: 230. mati-/matu- 'good' and mantī- 'amount' are theoretically possible, but less plausible semantically; the latter is also not attested in compounds, and the thematisation would be harder to explain.
See also Motta 1995: 130, Solinas 1995: 373, Morandi 2004: 584.
