Proper name

IPA: /ó.lym.pos/, /ˈo.lym.pos/, /ˈo.lim.bos/, /ó.lym.pos/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈo.lym.pos/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈo.lym.pos/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈo.lym.pos/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈo.lim.bos/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Probably cognate with Mycenaean Greek 𐀄𐀬𐀠𐀊𐀍 (u-ru-pi-ja-jo, description of men, possibly ethnical), which may indicate original /u/ in the anlaut. According to Beekes, Pre-Greek. Suspecting originally an appellative word for “mountain” ολύ- (olú-), he tentatively identified the suffix *-ump-, and the proto-form *Ulump-. According to Janda, a compound of the PIE roots *wel- (“to turn, wind; to enclose, wrap, encase”) and *pah₂- (“to protect, herd”), more precisely from the heteroclitic *wéluṛ ~ *welun- (“wrapping”), which directly gave Ancient Greek εἶλαρ (eîlar, “covering, shelter, defence, bulwark”), ὄλυνος (ólunos, “the rubbed off and discarded in the course of cleaning”), ὄλυνθος (ólunthos, “unripe fig”) and ὄλυρα (ólura, “amelcorn”). Further cognates include ἔλυμος (élumos, “millet; sheath, case, etui”), ἔλυτρον (élutron, “cover, case, sheath”), Albanian valle (“a kind of circular dance”), Russian вал (val, “billow, roller; rampart”), Proto-Germanic *waluz (“staff, stick”), Sanskrit वरुण (varuṇa, “ocean, sun, the gods”) and ऊर्मि (ūrmi, “wave, billow”), Latin vallus (“stake, pale; palisade”) and volvo (“to roll”). For more see εἰλύω (eilúō, “to wrap, enfold”).

Suspecting originally an appellative word for “mountain” ολύ- (olú-), he tentatively identified the suffix *-ump-, and the proto-form *Ulump-.\nAccording to Janda, a compound of the PIE roots *wel- (“to turn, wind; to enclose, wrap, encase”) and *pah₂- (“to protect, herd”), more precisely from the heteroclitic *wéluṛ ~ *welun- (“wrapping”), which directly gave Ancient Greek εἶλαρ (eîlar, “covering, shelter, defence, bulwark”), ὄλυνος (ólunos, “the rubbed off and discarded in the course of cleaning”), ὄλυνθος (ólunthos, “unripe fig”) and ὄλυρα (ólura, “amelcorn”). Further cognates include ἔλυμος (élumos, “millet; sheath, case, etui”), ἔλυτρον (élutron, “cover, case, sheath”), Albanian valle (“a kind of circular dance”), Russian вал (val, “billow, roller; rampart”), Proto-Germanic *waluz (“staff, stick”), Sanskrit वरुण (varuṇa, “ocean, sun, the gods”) and ऊर्मि (ūrmi, “wave, billow”), Latin vallus (“stake, pale; palisade”) and volvo (“to roll”).

Suspecting originally an appellative word for “mountain” ολύ- (olú-), he tentatively identified the suffix *-ump-, and the proto-form *Ulump-.\nAccording to Janda, a compound of the PIE roots *wel- (“to turn, wind; to enclose, wrap, encase”) and *pah₂- (“to protect, herd”), more precisely from the heteroclitic *wéluṛ ~ *welun- (“wrapping”), which directly gave Ancient Greek εἶλαρ (eîlar, “covering, shelter, defence, bulwark”), ὄλυνος (ólunos, “the rubbed off and discarded in the course of cleaning”), ὄλυνθος (ólunthos, “unripe fig”) and ὄλυρα (ólura, “amelcorn”). Further cognates include ἔλυμος (élumos, “millet; sheath, case, etui”), ἔλυτρον (élutron, “cover, case, sheath”), Albanian valle (“a kind of circular dance”), Russian вал (val, “billow, roller; rampart”), Proto-Germanic *waluz (“staff, stick”), Sanskrit वरुण (varuṇa, “ocean, sun, the gods”) and ऊर्मि (ūrmi, “wave, billow”), Latin vallus (“stake, pale; palisade”) and volvo (“to roll”).
