From Illyrian. Ultimatily disputed.
* The spelling Vend- should be preferred since the initial a- could be a later Latin prapeposition agglutinated. Tentatively the name could be related to the nasal form of the IE root *ueid- 'to see, know', like in the Gaulish adjective *vindos 'white'. Actually, the town belonged to the Iapodes, often related to the neighbouring Celtic Carni. Less likely, if the original spelling was Avend-, the IE root *au(e)- 'to flow' could be invoked, more precisely, a participe form *auent- 'the flowing'.Sciaretta, Antontio. Ancient Toponymy. 2010. http://www.asciatopo.altervista.org/illyria.html
* Possible cognate to Albanian vend, suggesting the toponomy of "the Place"
* From 1705 to 2004, over 60 different scholars have claimed that the modern Albanian language is descended from Illyrian. This would Put the reconstructed Proto-Albanian Proto-Albanian *wen-ta as an ancestor to the modern Albanian word and Illyrian toponym. It is also the gerundium of Proto-Albanian *awena However, lack of any incriptions may not be sufficient to sustain any clear identification of linguistic affinities.

Another theory suggests that it originated from the terms Vallexitum or Vallesium (both presumably name formations related to vallis), which could have evolved into Varisium, with the common shift from l to r. Additionally, Varese’s location at the mouth of valleys and its proximity to numerous forests might connect its name to the Latin word virens (“verdant”) indicating lush greenery.
