Etymology

Disputed, suggestions include:

  • Derivative of Proto-Celtic *dubros (water)[1]
  • Borrowed through Ancient Ligurian or another Celtic language from Proto-Celtic *tarwos (bull); folk etymology would later connect the name directly to the Latin cognate taurus.[2]

This etymology is incomplete. You can help Wiktionary by elaborating on the origins of this term.
