Proper name

IPA: [poːˈmoː.na] [Classical-Latin], [poˈmɔː.na] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: By surface analysis, pōmum (“fruit”) + -ōna. The term is superficially similar to Umbrian 𐌐𐌖𐌄𐌌𐌖𐌍𐌖𐌄 (puemunue) and Marsian poimunien, which could hint at a derivation from Proto-Italic *Powemōno/ā-, though alternative etymologies for the Sabellic forms have been proposed.
