Nantosuelta: A Gaulish Goddess suggests an alternative etymology and provides a picture of Nantosuelta with Sucellos, her consort.

The Encyclopedia Britannica says that Nantosvelta is the consort of Sucellos and that like Mercury's consort Rosmerta, she "reflect[s] the coupling of the protecting god of the tribe or nation with the mother-goddess."
