Headword: *do/kimos
Adler number: delta,1331
Translated headword: Dokimos, Docimus
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Dokimos] and Dokimon.
Greek Original:
*do/kimos kai\ *doki/mwn.
Note:
Both of these unglossed headwords are probably, though not demonstrably, proper names. (As elsewhere, Adler's convention of capitalising all headwords confuses the issue.) The primary one is of course copiously attested as an adjective meaning approved/esteemed (see LSJ s.v.), but it is also epigraphically attested as a proper name in e.g. classical Athens: see LGPN ii s.v. (The feminine *doki/mh is also to be found in an Athenian inscription from the imperial period.) For *doki/mwn cf. Lexicon Ambrosianum 913 and 916.
