Had Fufetius the same suffix as Lucretia ?

And fufidia? Possible link to fides, foed-? Excuse my ignorance.

Aren't these fuf- words Sabellian, rather than Latin?
e.g. Oscan fufans, fufens from sum (suppletive, from bhu root)

Umbrian shows the form combifiatu = confiditio < com- *bhidh-, so the root
exists in those languages.
In Oscan both *bH and *dH appear as f, so if we can explain (a) the u vowel
and (b) the -idia suffix, you coudl argue for a link. Or would you rather
make the link with the *bhudh root?
