Alvitus
Alvitus is a masculine given name well attested in medieval Galicia. Other attested spellings include Aluitus, Albitus, Aloitus, Aloytus, Albittus and Aloittus.[1] The Romance forms are Alvito, Aloito, Aloyto and Albito.
The etymology of Alvitus is uncertain. It may be of pre-Roman origin. A proposed derivation from the Latin name Albus is unlikely. It has been proposed as a hypocoristic form of Álvaro and as a name of Gothic origin. The name Alvith is attested among the Heruli.[1][2]
People with the name include:
- Alvito Nunes (died 1015), count of Portugal
- Aloito (bishop of Mondoñedo) (fl. 1040)
- Alvito (bishop of León) (died 1063)
The patronymic form is Alvites or Alóitez. Examples include:
- Hermenegildo Alóitez (born c. 898), Galicia nobleman
- Nuno Alvites (fl. 1017–1028), count of Portugal
