Orgetorix

Latin Etymology From la cel-gau *Orgetorīx, from la cel-pro *orgeti kill + la cel-pro *rīxs king. The etymology does not imply that the bearer of this name is necessarily a legal ruler. Pronunciation Orgetorīx Note: Sometimes given as Orgētorīx, based on the Gaulish coin spelling ORCHTIRIX; the evidence is not solid because the letter H in Gaulish did not necessarily denote a long vowel, as well as conflicting with the etymology. Appears as grc Ὀργέτοριξ with a Greek Ε in Cassius Dio.
