I have cut the following:
Let me explain why I am cutting this material.
Etymology, and historic linguistics more generally, are serious academic disciplines. They are not free-for-alls in which any kind of amateurish fantasy can be indulged. It would have been far more defensible to identify the roots, ico- and uellaun-, that have been identified by scholars, and simply explain the meaning of each. (This is in fact what I did, with appropriate footnotes, in any earlier contribution.) The anonymous contributor who gave us this travesty of an etymology did Wikipedia no service, and she or he certainly did no service to the study of Celtic religion.
