Recalls the Gaulish Boii tribes of Bohemia, central France, and
northern Italy. I think the name translates as 'Cattle King'.

How about geasum, 'spear'? "Spear King" sounds like a good Gaulish
name. It also suggests the Gaulish 'heavenly' sky god whose main
accouterment was his spear - a symbol of sovereignty. I think there
was also a Gaesi or Gaesori tribe somewhere in greater Gaul
(Rhineland?)

Obviosly the pan-Celtic god Lugos/ Lugh

goddess

Bod- is either from "raven", as was the name of the Irish war-goddess
Bodua, or it seems a cognate with "victory"
