Lugus + *aidu- "fire" (Old Irish aed) = "Lugus-Fire" or "Fire of
Lugus"

> Lugudeccs (g.Lugudeccas) > Luguid

Lugus + *dec- "good/best" (Old Irish dech) = "Good Lugus" or "Best
by Lugus"?

> Luguvveccs (g.Luguvvecca) > Lugech [g.]

Lugus + *vic-/*vec- "fight" (OIr. fich[id])= "Lugus-Warrior"
(or "Fights like Lugus")
