Latromis was one of the sons of
Dionysus and Ariadne. In view of the 'winy' interpretation that can be put on the names of all his brothers (
Oenopion,
Thoas,
Staphylus, Euanthes,
Tauropolus), we ought to look for one here. Perhaps it can be found in a blend of latax, 'drop of wine' and rome, 'strength'?
