Evans D.E. Gaulish Personal Names. A Study of Some Continental Celtic Formations

Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1967. — xxiv + 492 p.The object of this investigation is to list the Celtic personal names which occur in the Celtic inscriptions of Ancient Gaul, in the Commentaries on the Gallic War, and in the graffiti of La Graufesenque and to make a contribution towards the elucidation of some of the etymological, phonological, and morphological problems raised by those names.
The Introductory Chapter contains information about previous work on Gaulish anthroponymy and about the nature of the sources. Chapter II is devoted to listing the relevant material, with details concerning readings where this is necessary. An attempt is also made to furnish an etymological survey of this material under the headings (A) Compounded Names and (B) Uncompounded Names. The name elements attested in compounded names are discussed separately. Doubtful names are relegated to an Appendix. Chapter II is concerned with an analysis of some of the principal phonological and morphological features presented by the material.
