Is that *Pet-wari- (cf. Baju-wari-, Angri-wari-)?
Doesn't X-wari- mean something like "the former territory of the X"?
Occupied Pict-land?

More likely Parisium.
The tribal designation of the Latin name of cities in former Celtic
was in the Celtic gen.pl. -um, not the Latin one in -orum, according
to an article I read a long time ago, cf. Augusta Vindelicum
(Augsburg), or we would have had *Parisieur for Paris and *Torinoro
for Turin.

And BTW, since the names Bodiocasses and Baiocasses seems to indicate
the same tribe
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baiocasses
is it possible that the Boii should also have been called *Bodii- ?
