Funny, but this is actually a name Melus, as it made clearer by the following Peliam coniugem eius in columbam mutavit. Nicodene (talk) 17:26, 7 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Nicodene According to https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/95/An_introduction_to_vulgar_Latin_%28IA_introductiontovu01gran%29.pdf (page 82), actually attested as early as Petronius. Kwékwlos (talk) 11:08, 15 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
So it is. Looks good, then. Nicodene (talk) 13:46, 15 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
