Old Latin from Proto-Italic *djous patēr (“Jupiter”, literally “Sky Father”) from *djous + *patēr, from Proto-Indo-European *dyḗws (“sky god”, literally “the bright one”) from *dyew- (“to be bright, day sky”) + *ph₂tḗr (“father”). Essentially equivalent to diēs + pater; adds the title “Father” to Old Latin Diovis (“Jove”) whence the oblique cases of later forms of Diēspiter are derived by analogous formation (cf. Iuppiter, Iovis). Cognate of Umbrian 𐌉𐌖𐌐𐌀𐌕𐌄𐌓 (iupater); Sanskrit द्यौष्पितृ (Dyáuṣpitṛ́). Related by prime root to Diāna, dīvus, deus, and Ancient Greek Ζεύς (Zeús)—the Greek god to whom Roman Diēspiter is later equated—compare the equivalent vocative phrase in Doric Greek Δεῦ πάτερ (Deû páter), Attic Greek Ζεῦ πάτερ (Zeû páter, “O father Zeus”).

cog

Diéspiter te dique, Ergasile, perdant et ventrem tuom, parasítosque omnis, et qui posthac cenam parasitis dabit. cladés calamitasque, intemperies módo in nostram advenit domum. quasi lúpus esuriens ille metui ne in me faceret impetum.

c. 205 BCE, Titus Maccius Plautus, Captivi, act IV, scene IV, lines 1–4:

May Jupiter and the Deities confound you, Ergasilus, and your stomach, and all Parasites, and every one who henceforth shall give a dinner to Parasites. Destruction and devastation and ruin have just now entered our house. I was afraid that he would be making an attack on me, as though he had been an hungry wolf.

In antiquis precationibus nomina hæc deorum inesse animadvertimus: Diovis et Vediovis; est autem etiam ædes Vediovis Romæ inter Arcem et Capitolium. Eorum nominum rationem esse hanc comperi: Iovem Latini veteres a iuvando appellavere, eundemque alio vocabulo iuncto patrem dixerunt. Nam quod est, elisis aut inmutatis quibusdam litteris, Iupiter, id plenum atque integrum est Iovispater. Sic et Neptunuspater coniuncte dictus est et Saturnuspater et Ianuspater et Marspater—hoc enim est Marspiter—itemque Iovis Diespiter appellatus, id est diei et lucis pater. Idcircoque simili nomine Iovis Diovis dictus est et Lucetius, quod nos die et luce quasi vita ipsa afficeret et iuvaret. Lucetium autem Iovem Cn. Nævius in libris Belli Pœnici appellat.

c. 150 CE, Aulus Gellius, Noctes Atticæ, Book V, Chapter XII, lines 1–7:

In ancient prayers we have observed the names of these gods: Diovis and Vediovis; furthermore, there is a temple of Vediovis at Rome, between the Citadel and Capitolium. The explanation of these names I have ascertained: the ancient Latins called Iovis from iuvare, and called the same god “father,” thus adding another word. For Iovispater is the full complete form, which becomes Iupiter by syncope or change of some letters. So also Neptunuspater is used as a compound, and Saturnuspater and Ianuspater and Marspater—for this is Marspiter—and Jove also was called Diespiter, that is, the father of day and of light. And thus by a name of similar origin Jove is called Diovis and also Lucetius, because he blesses and helps us by means of the day and the light, equal to life itself. And Lucetius is applied to Jove by Gn. Nævius in his poem on the Punic War.

Byzantine Empire
Corpus Juris Civilis
Justinian
Ulpian
leges regiae

Literally, “(the) royal law”. The process by which the term came to refer to the definitive transfer of authority from the Roman people to the emperor is obscure and controversial: although Ulpian (c. 220 CE) uses the term in describing the emergence of the principate, it is unclear whether he intended it specifically or in the generic sense of a royal law; it has also been argued that its appearance in Ulpian is a later Byzantine interpolation. The particular sense was established by the time of the Corpus Juris Civilis of Justinian (529–34).

In primis foedera ac leges—erant autem eae duodecim tabulae et quaedam regiae leges—conquiri, quae comparerent, iusserunt.

27 BCE – 25 BCE, Titus Livius, Ab Urbe Condita 6.1.10

They first of all decreed that treaties and laws be collected—namely the twelve tables and certain royal laws—as far as they could be discovered.

At audistis, patres conscripti, philosophi vocem: negavit se triumphi cupidum umquam fuisse.

But Conscript Fathers, you heard the voice of the philosopher: he denied that he has ever had the desire for a triumph.

Dixerunt eum Victorem, Inuictum, Opitulum, Inpulsorem, Statorem, Centumpedam, Supinalem, Tigillum, Almum, Ruminum et alia quae persequi longum est. Haec autem cognomina inposuerunt uni deo propter causas potestatesque diuersas, non tamen propter tot res etiam tot deos eum esse coegerunt: quod omnia uinceret, quod a nemine uinceretur, quod opem indigentibus ferret, quod haberet inpellendi, statuendi, stabiliendi, resupinandi potestatem, quod tamquam tigillus mundum contineret ac sustineret, quod aleret omnia, quod ruma, id est mamma, aleret animalia. In his, ut aduertimus, quaedam magna sunt, quaedam exigua; et tamen unus utraque facere perhibetur. Puto inter se propinquiora esse causas rerum atque primordia, propter quas res unum mundum duos deos esse uoluerunt, Iouem atque Ianum, quam continere mundum et mammam dare animalibus; nec tamen propter haec opera duo tam longe inter se ui et dignitate diuersa duo dii esse compulsi sunt; sed unus Iuppiter propter illud Tigillus, propter illud Ruminus appellatus est. Nolo dicere, quod animalibus mammam praebere sugentibus magis Iunonem potuit decere quam Iouem, praesertim cum esset etiam diua Rumina, quae in hoc opus adiutorium illi famulatumue praeberet. Cogito enim posse responderi, et ipsam Iunonem nihil aliud esse quam Iouem, secundum illos Valerii Sorani uersus, ubi dictum est: Iuppiter omnipotens regum rerumque deumque Progenitor genetrixque deum. Quare ergo dictus est et Ruminus, cum diligentius fortasse quaerentibus ipse inueniatur esse etiam illa diua Rumina? Si enim maiestate deorum recte uidebatur indignum, ut in una spica alter ad curam geniculi, altera ad folliculi pertineret: quanto est indignius unam rem infimam, id est ut mammis alantur animalia, duorum deorum potestate curari, quorum sit unus Iuppiter, rex ipse cunctorum, et hoc agat non saltem cum coniuge sua, sed cum ignobili nescio qua Rumina, nisi quia ipse est etiam ipsa Rumina; Ruminus fortasse pro sugentibus maribus, Rumina pro feminis. Dicerem quippe noluisse illos Ioui femininum nomen inponere, nisi et in illis uersibus "progenitor genetrixque" diceretur, et inter eius alia cognomina legerem, quod etiam Pecunia uocaretur, quam deam inter illos minuscularios inuenimus et in quarto libro commemorauimus. Sed cum et mares et feminae habeant pecuniam, cur non et Pecunia et Pecunius appellatus sit, sicut Rumina et Ruminus, ipsi uiderint.

Augustine of Hippo, De Civitate Dei 7.11

1963 translation by William M. Green
The pagans have called Jupiter by the titles Victor, Invictus, Opitulus, Impulsor, Stator, Centumpeda, Supinalis, Tigillus, Almus, Ruminus, and still others which it would be tedious to enumerate. They have applied all these names to one god for various reasons and because of his various powers. But they have not, though there are so many functions, compelled him to become as many different gods. The functions are that he is victor over all, and invincible, and brings help to the needy, and has the power of impelling, of causing to stand, of stabilizing, and of laying flat; because he maintains and sustains the world like a beam; because he nourishes all things, and nourishes all animals by the breast (ruma). Among these functions, as we observe, some are important and some unimportant, yet one god is supposed to perform both kinds. In my judgement there is a closer relation between the causes of things and their beginnings, for which they would have one universe identical with two gods, Jupiter and Janus, than there is between maintaining the world and giving the breast to animals. However, there was no necessity for having two gods even for two tasks so different from each other in display of power and dignity; the one god Jupiter was called Tigillus for the one task and Ruminus for the other. I will not say that it would have been more appropriate for Juno than for Jupiter to furnish the breast to sucking animals, especially since there was also a goddess Rumina to furnish her help and service for this work. For I think the reply can be made that Juno herself is none other than Jupiter, according to these verses of Valerius Soranus, where it is said: 'Jupiter, mighty Father of kings and of gods and / of all things, / Mother as well of the gods . . .' Why then was he also called Ruminus, when, if perhaps we were to inquire more carefully, we might find that he is also identical with the goddess Rumina? If there was good reason for supposing it unsuitable to the dignity of the gods, in the case of one stalk of wheat, that one god should have the care of the knots, another that of the sheath, how much more unworthy is it that one low task, namely, to see that animals get nourishment from the breast, should require the power of two deities. One of them was Jupiter, himself king of all things, and he performed this task not along with his wife, but with some unknown Rumina. Unless he is himself Rumina—Ruminus perhaps for suckling males and Rumina for females. Of course I might say that they were unwilling to give Jupiter a woman’s name, except that it was said of him in those verses I quoted, “Father and Mother as well,” and except that among his other names I have read that he was also called Pecunia. I found this goddess among those petty gods, and have mentioned her in the fourth book. But since both males and females have money, why was Jupiter not called both Pecunia and Pecunius, as he is called Rumina and Ruminus? I leave the answer to them.

The latinized forms Laeetani, Iacetani, Lacetani and Laletani are known, borrowed from local demonyms, possibly via Ancient Greek. Of the four, the former two have some epigraphic finds matching them, so modern translators and lexicographers tend to prefer them over Laletania and Laletani.
