General notesProbably trimembric compound with haplology of *Trougo-clei-° > Trouclei-°; first member: cf. OIr. tróg, trúag 'miserable', W Bret. tru; second member: perhaps Gaul. continuant of PIE *k̂lewos- 'glory' ?; meaning of the full name Troucleimarus: 'great in bad glory' ? Alternatively, *Trouclei- could also be a syncopated (?) variant of hypocoristically suffixed *Trou-cillo- as in Troucillius (e.g. in CIL III 5037).
