Btw. also coins are sources like this of the Vandal king Gunthamund with the inscription DN REX GVNTHAMVNDI:

I wonder if the Latinization of Gunthamund as "GVNTHAMVNDI" was influenced by the Latin word mvndi (world). You see that kind of stuff somewhat regularly. For example, Hierosolyma as a Hellenization of Yerushalayim (Jerusalem), influenced by Greek hieros (sacred), Secunderabad as an Anglicization of Sikandarabad, influenced by Latin secundus, etc...

A good observation with that "i" that also disturbed me somewhat.

And it remains distrubing if you dig deeper because you don't have that "i" in other contexts, f. i. you also have "D N REX GEILAMIR" (D N means Dominus noster) and it also doesn't make sense from a grammar aspect. So your suspicion actually may be correct there. (Germanic mund means protection.)

In addition to your examples there also exist foreign language re-interpretations that do not change the spelling. This is said to apply f. i. to the etymologically fully - however, initially fully - Germanic personal name Pilgrim (pil = axe, grim = helmet, masque) that became popular in the Middle Ages and was then perceived as meaning a pilgrim (from Latin peregrinus).

You see the same thing with Maria for the Virgin Mary...clearly a conflation of the Hebrew Miryam with the Latin Maria (female version of Mario).

Yes! I never considered that!
