Latin 'catamitus' (English 'catamite') is often thought to be a borrowing from Etruscan 'catmite/caθmite', itself from Greek Γανυμήδης.

— Classics@Cambridge (@CamClassics) March 27, 2017

But getting Etruscan 'catmite' from Γανυμήδης is difficult: the voiced-voiceless issue is fine (*canumetes), so is v.reduction (*canmite?)

— OxEtruscologia (@OxEtruscologia) March 27, 2017

…but it's difficult to explain the first /t/ from *canmite (vel. sim.), so one might follow Bakkum 2009:203 in deriving it from κατατμητός

— OxEtruscologia (@OxEtruscologia) March 27, 2017

If Latin catamitus and Etruscan catmite are to be derived from κατατμητός, one may wonder if Etruscan mediation is actually required…
