Commentary
Compound personal name. Gambari 2007: 258 f. segments leu̯kuru-rit-ū (Gambari 2011: 27 leukuroritō), comparing the Latin(ised) personal name leucuro (VB·21). While the comparison of the first element is doubtlessly apt, we prefer a segmentation leu̯kur-u̯rīt-ū '?-found', which puts the morpheme border at the line break (cf. akluśamoualos). On the obscure first element leu̯kur-, which most probably contains the base leu̯k- 'bright', see leucuro.
