Where this word comes from

Probably from Proto-Indo-European *dʰeyǵʰ- (“to mold”), the root of fingō (“to shape, form”). Likely cognate to Umbrian 𐌚𐌉𐌊𐌋𐌀 (fikla) / ficla, derived from *dʰigʰ-tlā-, with the feminine version of the instrument noun suffix *-tlom. The regular outcome of *dʰiǵʰt- in Latin is fict- (compare fictus), so fītilla may represent a dialectal form of *fictilla.
